    Need a new IS please ?

    It should be a 2020 model released in 2019 from my understanding. the IS350 AWD has the 6 speed because of the AWD, for some reason Lexus has done that on the IS350 AWD and GS350 AWD that share the same motor. BMW in any model I would lease and give back before warranty expires always unless...

    Need a new IS please ?

    My GM said IS will be redesigned for 2019 model, cant wait to see what they will do after seeing the ES change. 2018 seems to have upgrades they didn’t really mention. Heard it has new turbo so less lag also. Going to check and see if I can upgrade my 17 turbos to the 18 tomorrow if it isn’t too...

    Need a new IS please ?

    you have to compare the IS to the BMW 330 which has more horsepower and torque. the 320 is the BMW base version of the 330 with manual seats, no moon roof, ect... on most builds although you can get some of those features. The IS300 has a lot of potential int he motor already, they just need...

    Need a new IS please ?

    Actually the LS500 is 417 hp, it would be better to have the LC500 motor with 471 HP in a new IS F to compete with M3, C63, ect and put the LS500 motor is a new IS350 and put that in the GS350 also, that would be a good boost to Lexus line up for performance!

    Need a new IS please ?

    2014 was a great year for the Lexus IS with the redesign. Not many people looking to get one now the same as they were in 2014 and 2015. A new design and competitive performance would help a lot. It would be cool to see the LS500 motor turbo 6 cylinder and trans in a new IS F to compete with...

    Need a new IS please ?

    I agree, i have the 2017 IS. I spent the money on a K&N air filter, intake tube, and Vivid Racing tune to increase performance and really like it now. Definitely looking forward to a new one, hopefully with more performance to rival the BMW 330i and hopefully a new model with a turbo 6...

    Air Intakes

    just ordered an HPS intake tube to help improve performance. Anyone have one already on an IS200t? https://www.vividracing.com/catalog/2017-Lexus-IS200t-hps-blue-silicone-hose-kit-intake-hose-lexus-1617-is200t-20l-turbo-p-151673990.html

    Air Intakes

    decided to go for a K&N filter to replace the stock one since the F Sport cold air intake isn't available anymore for the 200t and really like it so far. feels like it makes it breathe a lot better and i can notice acceleration being improved. Definitely worth the $60 is spent on it.

    checking for my 2017 IS200t and they don't show any F Sport intake available for 2017 models but still can order for 2016, checking to see if the 2016 will fit on the 2017

    Discussion: The Future of the Lexus LX

    True, that is a good idea. Maybe an "L" version of it with a longer wheelbase would be good?

    Discussion: The Future of the Lexus LX

    The LX has come back to life in popularity since the refresh/redesign of 2016, I would suggest keeping the GX and redesigning that model and then coming out with an LX that is a bit bigger to have as a true 8 seater SUV with cargo room in the back when the seats are down. That is one thing...

    Rendered: The 2018 Lexus LS Coupe

    For sure but the LS coupe could be more on the luxury side coupe where LC seems more of a sport coupe. I know it won't happen but if it did it would be an excellent luxury coupe.

    Lexus Japan Releases Special Edition NX 200t & NX 300h

    looks like the appearance package they put on the RX350 a few years back with the F Sport front end and added dark wheels. Dark wheels look good and I like the F Sport front end more, looks more full bodied.
