Hello all. Bought a 2014 IS350 F-sport i in August and am really enjoying it. The 8-speed auto is flawless. I don't think this car gets fuel mileage as good as the '07 335i which we traded on it, but it's ok. Frankly do not notice the VGR steering, but I suppose this is good...
Options:
Matador Red
F-Sport
Nav w/Mark Levinson
Parking Assist
Variable gear ratio steering

I enjoy reading this forum and have a 2013 ES300h as our other car. After owning a 2001 BMW325i, 2005 Audi A4 Convertible, 2008 BMW 335xi and 2011 BMW 528i, the new IS has an excellent ride and responsive steering. Looking forward to driving a reliable and fun car to drive.
While the 335xi was a blast to drive, I didn't really use the power and hated the mandatory run-flat tires. The IS250 has a smooth V6 motor that Lexus will likely change in a few years. The A4 and 335xi had turbo motors, but my preference is a good old NA engine which Lexus has perfected over the years.
I satisfy my need for power and speed by riding my HD.

Our first Lexus
Hello everyone,
I'm new to Lexus and new to this forum. I just bought a 2014 IS 250 base for my fiancee and it's a fantastic car. We're loving it so far. So much nicer than the 328i she was driving. We chose the Starfire Pearl with the Flaxen interior which makes an outstanding combination in my opinion. Other than the preferred package, I had the dealer swap out the stock 17" wheels/tires for the 18" five spokes off a 2013 preowned IS and I think they look great on this car. I also put on a clear bra package. Glad to be a member of this community

They are Vossen CV3. 20 x 9 front +38 and 20 x 10.5 back +45. However, I bought some 20 x 10 +45 for the back... didn't like the tires rubbing and wanted something a little less aggressive without having to stretch too much tire.
