Default Picked up yesterday (6/6/15) 2015 IS 350 F sport AWD

Hello all glad to be a part of this forum... I'm Jamie and and live in wild wonderful West Virginia and I work at the Toyota power tran plant in Buffalo WV, Making the choice a little easier, but there are some amazing other cars from other manufactors that are impressive.
I purchased 2015 IS 350 AWD F sport in Silver Lining Met. With black interior... Stickered for $49,534 and after all my discounts and everything I walked away with a car that I think I will be happy with.
Bought from Germaine Lexus of Easton (Columbus oh) and they were great to work with.... With all the discounts and different papers that has to go thru because of Toyota employee was a little slow but they wanted to make sure everything was done proper. All in al a good buying experience.
Looking forward to playing with these car.(wife daily driver I drive a tundra TRD ) so she will have to approve. Drove 140 miles home from dealer dash said I got 20.2 mpg.... Seems most of the IS on dealer lots are equipped about the same... So when you buy them from dealer stock they are all close to the same cars...

Just picked her up yesterday, ordered end of February. IS 350 F with ML, BSM, and the radar.

My old altima was very touchy on the gas pedal so it's a bit hard to get used to the pedal on the IS 350F - it's not as responsive, but equates to a smoother ride (the V6 altima was very jumpy). The brake pedal is another animal - that brake boost is a killer. I have to relearn how to drive in this new baby.

Hello all! I'm Z from Houston.

Just picked up my brand new 2015 IS 350 F sport last week! First time Lexus owner! Love this car so far! The look of it is unmatched, it's smooth and quiet, and can really go in sport + mode. Definetly a head turner.

Ultra white
Rioja red interior

Just got all the windows tinted. Plan to get the chrome outline on all windows + grill wrapped in black!

Hey everyone. Just thought I would make an intro thread as well. New to the forums and to Lexus all together. I've always owned Honda/Acura and modified them, but with this car, I think I'm going to leave it pretty close to the way I picked it up. Maybe some under the hood upgrades if I can find an intake set up that has good reviews or just a filter swap.

I picked up the car 2 weeks ago.

Here are a few pics





Just got home with the new ride 05-29-2015

Default 2015 is 250 awd

Hi All - After testing the 328ix (with M Sport) and Audi A4 a few times, I decided on the IS. Felt the tight steering provided a better feel than the bimmer, which I thought had lost its original handling characteristics (tight and heavy steering). They definitely made the mistake with going with the electronic vs hydraulic steering, hence I went with the IS. I had an IS300 previously back in 2001 and enjoyed it for over 130K miles with no reliability issues and have no doubt that this new IS will do the same for me. >

Nebula Grey with Grey Interior
Lip Spoiler
Blind Spot Detection
Navi
Rear View Camera
Perforated seats with heating and cooling

One feature I wished Lexus should have offered is the leg extension, available in most European cars.

Been following this forum for awhile and finally decided to join. Had a 2009 GS350 before I got my used Fsport.


The first photo is when I got it and the second photo is how it is now.
