Default Best Enfrom Package for 2015 IS250

Just made it back to Lexus. And I would love to have the remote start working. 2015 IS250 FSport with Navigation. Do they have any starter type package to see if it works ok?

they give you free 1 year subscription upon purchasing the car. after that, it's a rip off. not worth it.

I asked about it at the Dealership. And they said only the XM for 90 days is free. I called the Enform guys yesterday and they tried to sell me the 249 a year package. And I told them I just bought it. Does it make a difference if its new or L-Certified? Mines L-Certified.

^ I don't think it makes a difference. The only difference is the packages of Lexus Enform. My subscription just expired on my F Sport. When I had the 2015 IS, I used to pay about $20 monthly for the Enform which equals $249.99/year. I'm still deciding whether or not it's worth it on this model.

You could go with an aftermarket one for 200/400 that won't be a subscription. Screw paying for enform. Gladly I have a 2014 with remote start but no enform integration. It started with the 15's.

The free 1 year of ALL Enform services is provide only if you buy a new car. NOT CPO.

What is the best Enform package? None.

what system are you using in order to get the car to start remotely? i thought that 2014s didn't receive that feature, so i'm curious which system you're using.

When I purchased the car CPO I found out that Lexus did make a factory option remote start for the 2014. I had it installed by a dealer recommended shop down the street. 100% Lexus parts and my stock key-fob works to start the car. It's a crap system, shutting down the engine when you open the door, but it's better than nothing. The 2014 IS is wired and ready for remote start you'll just need the receiver installed.
