Default First Lexus

Hey all, Vernon from Saskatchewan, Canada.

Picked up my Lexus a few days ago,

2016 IS 350 AWD
F-Sport Series 2
Ultra White with Black interior

Already a few simple things done. Limo tint in the rear windows, and Magnaflow axel back exhaust.
Looking to find a kit or individual LED's for all interior, as well as the lights on the bottom of the mirrors.
Can't seem to find 2016 part numbers for intakes.

^^^Congrats on your new IS! For intakes, check out the Performance section here. I had a Takeda intake which fit the 2IS as well as the current gen.

What up,

2015 IS350 F Sport RWD
Color: Atomic Silver
Interior: Rioja Red
Fully loaded to include ML sound and illuminated door sils not sure if there is anything this sexy beast does't have.

Just picked her up yesterday and love her already. I am glad I finally pulled the trigger. List of things to do or already on order:
Plasti Dip to black out all chrome accents
Precision LED interior/Puddle lights
Windshield Tint
Subwoofers and AMP install - just gotta find a place that will set it up how I want. I need a kill switch as well as to be able to control the volume of the subs separately from the stereo.

New Lexus owner checking in. Just bought this 2016 is350 F sport atomic silver and I absolutely love it!! The exterior is great and the interior is just something else. This color combination currently wasn't available in my state of Texas, so they had to bring one in from Alabama. Nikki from north park Lexus in San Antonio went out of her way to give us the best deal. I just got it this past Saturday and it already has tint, rsr down springs, seibon rear Carbon fiber spoiler and I'm waiting for my front Carbon fiber spoiler to come in several days. The longest I've stayed with a car is 3 years and with this one I possibly see myself keeping it and paying it off, it's just so amazing.

Hey all! I'm James from California, 19, just bought a new 2016 Lexus IS200T a few weeks ago, completely base except with a backup camera in Nebula Gray Pearl W/ black exterior. This is also my first 'new' car after my old 1997 Lexus ES300 rip :'( got totaled by some guy who didn't stop at a stop sign. I'm planning on owning this car for 10+ years, which probably won't be a problem since the old ES300 lasted almost 20 with no issues.

So far it's been awesome! The IS200T definitely has some breathy spots off the line, but it has a lot of pull once the turbo spools. Other than that, the ride and everything else has been amazing.

No doubt! I always wanted black and my previous Lexus was black, but Nebula Gray Pearl got me in love once I saw it in the showroom under those bright lights

Default New Lexus

I picked up a new 2016 Lexus IS 200T F Sport today in Ultra White with Red Interior. It has Navigation, BSM, illuminated door sills, rear spoiler and leather wrapped steering wheel.

I was was torn between leasing the 200T F Sport or the IS 350 F Sport. I ultimately decided the 200T was a good choice for my driving habits. I was also pleasantly surprised with the premium audio. I was initially thinking I needed the ML but the premium will work fine.

I absolutely love the car.
