Used 2008 Lexus IS 250 RWD for Sale near St. John's, NL
4.6 Overall rating
(14 reviews)Great all around car! Really no downgrades for this vehicle. It is smooth as silk on the highway and gets great gas millage. I would buy again! I can't say enough about this car. Lexus is the ultimate luxury brand!
Most lexi don't like to hustle, they're built for commuting comfort, and this is no exception. But it doesn't fail its ranking a s a sports sedan - its engine loves to rev, making blistering acceleration never more than half a second away. The brakes are solid, although the electronics make them feel numb sometimes. And the electric steering always puts you exactly where you want to go. The suspension is soft, as you'd expect it to be, but the car doesn't roll in the corners, one assumes because of a low centre of gravity. Only real issue I have come across so far is severe understeer if you have the traction controls on. Turning one of them off cures it. Turning both off will create severe oversteer, especially in wet weather. Build quality is exceptional - as you would expect. My only complaint is the paint - it's rediciliously delicate. Just don't buy it in the mica grey colour, and you'll be fine. It's one of the best looking cars I've ever seen, and not just on the outside, but on the inside, where it counts. The loads of functions have all been hidden away in different places so they're never overwhelming, as it is, for instance, in jags of old. It isn't cheap - but you get loads of kit for your money. And the dealership will take care of you. If anything were to break down it'd be expensive, but the dealer has courtesy transport to retrieve your car and provides you with another while they fix yours. But they only do that because we all know few will ever use that service for mechanical reasons. I can honestly say I plan on never selling this car. It's that good.
A great motor with a stable ride. I recomend it to any one single who wants to feel appreciated. Black is beautiful. The light interior gives a spacious feeling. The automatic gear box works smoothly and responds promptly to the accelerator. Does not suite families because of the small rear seat.
Its one of the nicest cars ive ever driven.. Its a small V6 but has enough pep to get out of its own way... It has a beautifully designed interior, full with navigation and high quality leather... One of the best deals offered if you are looking for quality..
Performance - not as quick as the Audi I owned, certainly a more relaxed drive. Build quality - better than the Audi, probably best in class. Appearance - love it, or hate it, it is unique - until I saw the new Mazda6. Even has the same kick in the door line at the rear door pillar. Cost of ownership - maintenance is covered for the next 90,000 kms. Gas milage is slightly better than the Audi. Thus far after 5,000kms, I've averaged 9.9 litres/100kms. Fun Factor - Hmmmm - only if you're older than 50. The ISF will bring a smile to my face. Brand Appeal - I'm getting far more "thumb ups" and nods of approval compared to the three years with the Audi. Lexus is the new luxury German brand (tongue in cheek). Resale value - best in class by far.
