First Impression of IS300
I have had my 03 IS300 for a couple weeks now. So far I am very pleased. Very quiet and smooth and fun to drive. I am pleasantly surprised at the gas mileage. I have not had a tank under 20mpg yet. Usually anywhere from 21-22 mpg. And that is with doing alot of city driving and stop and go freeway rush hour driving. I also really like the climate control in this car. In other cars I have owned I never used it because it didnt seem to work very well at maintaining the desired temperature. Always hot or cold. The A/C controls are very well organized and easy to use. We have had a couple of warm days where I have used the A/C and it seems to work well. Hope it holds up to the 115 degree days we have here.
The only negative so far is the cupholders. Pretty weak in my opinion. Does anyone know where I can get the piece that divides the two cup holders? Mine is missing.

Lexus of Pembroke Pines is 25.46 shipped. I called my Toyota contact, and will see what she can get it for. Shes local and will get it faster. I have had many, many Toyotas and have always used her and received great service and great prices.
