It was a great car with all the bells and whistles on the inside. The only problem is the frame was too Low. I had a hard time getting inside the car with my hair in a bun. I had to duck my head down in order to get into the car. There was no legroom in the back seat. I test drove the ES 350 and bought that modelJul 07, 2024

It’s a joy driving the IS 300, it’s is nice and compact, it gets in and out of turns easily.. It has plenty of power with the dual turbo engine and sport mode on top for an extra boost. Plenty of safety features, with road assistance and blind spot sensors. The Lexus IS 300 like any Lexus IS is Stylish and looks Sleek. We love it. Jun 18, 2022
