l love how my car handles but it is sooo unreliable. l have taken the IS on 2 test drives but am still not sure if it will handle okay on the interstate. The IS350 has too much power for me so that is why l opted for the 250. l also drove an 08 accord, TSX and TL, and they were great just a bit uncomfortable. Any suggestions are appreciated. BTW l will not buy another German car, great handling but maintenance is brutal.

It should handle fine. Its a a sporty car.
The 2.5 V6 should have plenty of pep.

I've driven the IS250 twice, both times they were the base car (still awesome.heated/air conditioned seats, great stereo, AWD, u know the rest.) used as dealer loaner cars. l was so impressed by this car that I'd consider buying it if l needed another car. It is nothing short of fantastic on the interstate as well as around town/inner city streets as well. Visibility seems ample, & it is a very safe car. l highly recommend the Lexus, & just a friendly reminder, the CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) Lexus vehicles from a Lexus dealership come with a better warranty than the new vehicles do. We purchased a 2003 GX 470 back in 2005 with 34K on it, & now it has 110K on it. The CPO warranty goes 3 years/100K, whichever comes first. My GX has been perfect in regards to performance, reliability, comfort, everything!! You will not be disappointed!

Very reliable vehicle. The handling is superb and the power band is decient for the size of the engine. The AWD will handle a little better than the RWD. Does great on the highway. Tires will wear a little fast but then again it is a sports car. As long you are not to agressive with the driving you should see good miles out of the tires.
