Default AC not cold ?

Second time I've used it was today, already 93F today and pushing 100F tomorrow, summer started in Feb here. AC just feels like it's mildly cool, not cold and I've tried it using in cabin air and outside air on low and full blast and it doesn't get cold is this normal for Lexus? my Subaru got ice cold so this is kinda odd for Lexus I would think.

For the IS model, that is my experience. Get a ES loaner and the AC/Heater as well as the heated seats is a polarizing experience. At least for me. The 2IS is no different, it had a weak a AC unit ...and weak ventilated/heated seats as well.

The IS will get the cabin in comfortable temp range but it doesn't have drastic temps to say quickly heat you up or quickly cool you down.

Gotcha, so it's normal....that sucks.

daobn24 - to "low" and on full blast, where in Cali are you? I'm in central it started hitting 90's in early March so maybe you're in a cooler area.

Mine blows COLD, another reason could be the law in CA, they dont let us tint the front, I have people in my back seat complaining it gets too cold while it was still hot at the front :/
