2004 Lexus IS Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Owners of the 2004 Lexus IS appreciate its sporty performance and stylish design, often referring to it as fun to drive and a great combination of looks and performance. Many also highlight the impressive build quality and reliability typical of Toyota products. However, some drivers find the e-shifting feature less than ideal and feel that the car could benefit from turbo modifications to enhance performance further."
Performance wise this car out of the box is alright... its quick enough for around town handles great, if you want to be faster dont mess around with the NA modifications... just save up for a turbo (its well worth the wait) i will update my review once the turbo is installed on my car... Build quality is excellent no rattles etc materials inside the car feel top notch... Appearance- this car gets compliments left and right at gas stations etc gas mileage is alright 20 in the city and about 24ish on the highway on premium...maintenance cost isnt too much since my car is under warranty 5 years 100k (i have 22k on my car as of now) and so far after a year everything is working fine... over all its a really fun car to drive...
August 23, 2008Fun to drift around with due to the rear propulsion and the limited slip differential. Comfortable,handles well, safe & well built. Reliability-wise, nothing to say=TOYOTA. Sonds awesome with the right exhaust system. Long live the inline-6 2JZ engine !
September 6, 2009I drove this car back to back with a G35 coupe (6 sp.) and it just felt so much more light on its feet and alive. It's by far one of the best cars I have ever driven. Great daily driver or weekend toy. With a little bit of boost and some suspension mods, the car is perfect.

February 21, 2008One of the best looking cars out there, one-two combo with great looks and great performance for it's class. Also known as the Toyota Altezza (Japanese) and nicknamed "Baby Supra" since it has a similar engine as a Toyota Supra.
March 22, 2008This is one of the best cars I have owned. It is such a fun car to drive. The performance is a little above average for a 4 door since it has the 2jz ge engine in it from a supra just non turbo.
October 27, 2011Yes there are better cars out there, but its the best bang for the buck. Its not overly large or heavey. its Total Cost of Ownership is reasonable. It is a fun car to drive through the canyons and hills
