And if anyone is in the NJ area I am also a Lexus tech so if anyone needs work or parts just send me a message!

Welcome. There are a few others members here from NJ. Myself included. Nice IS!

My name is Kenny, I work for Lexus in Mesa, AZ.

I drive a 2015 Ultra White IS250 F-Sport with Rioja Red interior. I replaced my seats for Braum Racing's Elite Series in Maroon and they matched my interior perfectly. I have Cosmis Racing R1's in Hyper Bronze, lowered on Tein Street Advance Z coilovers and I also have an F Sport air intake.

headlight washer is an option, F-sport badge in the trunk start with 2015+ 2016+ starts with Collision assist lane assist, 2017 new diffuser slightly changed with the front bump. i'm wondering why some IS has 2 LED in their headlight, i assumed maybe they are IS250 300 or 200T.

2017 IS350 AWD F-sport series 2 comes with only 1 LED bulp headlight like mine so does the Luxury package, i think US version is different too ?

Hi guys, I'm new to the Lexus club just picked up a 2014 Lexus is250 fsport, I'm completely stock right now. I want to put wheel spacers on, was thinking 25mm in the front and 20mm in the rear on stock rims and suspension. Does anyone know if this will work without rubbing?

Welcome Fitness!
Your spacer choices are spot on...it will look great without rubbing.

Default New Owner

Hey everyone, long time lurker, and now brand new owner of my first Lexus! Just picked her up today, a 2017 IS 350 FSport AWD in Ultra White/Roja Red. I wanted to give a shout out again to Greg Samuels @ Lexus of Edison, can't recommend him enough. He helped my father get his 2017 RX 350 in December, and now he helped me out big time with finding me my IS. I'm finally truly part of the ClubLexus family!

I picked it up from the seller today 😊 2013 F-Sport (it was released here a year earlier than the U.S.) with just over 18,000kms on it.

I'm ordering wheels & springs for it later this week. Super excited! I've been a MINI owner for 12 years so this is all new to me.

Hi my name is Jamie and I am new to the forum as I took delivery of my first Lexus on Friday.
I have worked in the RX manufacturing facility for the past 4 years drooling over the quality of these vehicles

I have the 2017 IS 350 F-sport series 3 Atomic Silver on Rioja Red with added oem spoiler
Also had the dealer not install the license plate mount on that gorgeous grill and decided to go with a tow hook mount setup

What an absolute joy it is to drive this car!
