A quick glance at the driver's door reveals all the nice touches Lexus has become well known for.

I still think the seat cushion feels a little narrow....then again im very used to SRT-4 Viper-style seats.

Racing style pedals. One can see where the trunk and gas lid releases are.

Upon start up the dash cluster performs a total guage/light check, pretty cool at first. This is what it looks like while illuminated.

the center console is one trick piece, it slides back to reveal A cupholder, then it will slide further for storage and finally it can be tilted rear-ward to reveal a 12v socket aswell as an Auxilary port for items such as an i-pod ( as seen here)

Backseat is still a little tight but far better than the previous IS

Nice to see one that's actually loaded. Was it for sale, or is it a Lexus "demo" mule?

the key while just like the GS ones has one unique feature....every IS will come with the leather protector seen in this pic from the factory.

...outside before it was backed into our detail tent for some cleaning

...guys these are 18inch wheels with 225/40ZR18s.....and those brakes are HUGE!

Too bad. It would have given me a glimmer of hope that there may be some fully loaded ones out there.

It got swarmed no sooner i put it on the showroom floor

cant wait to get my first few cars...

Glacier Frost GS-300 and Blue Onyx Is-350 sharing space on our showroom floor.

a few members of our staff are at an off-site location where we are hosting a Lexus Sale/Expo. The location is not far from our dealership so our GM brought it down as part of his test drive. This is the IS-350 sitting outside the Harborview Center in downtown Clearwater,FL.

my favorite pic......it shows how well the lines flow towards the front end. If you look at the bottom center you'll notice the window line glides foward where it joins the hood line/gap

Any chance of posting a closer pic of the center console? That's one of the only ones I've seen with the sports package trim.

nothing really left to see except this:


i'll add that unfortunately i forgot to take pics of the placement of the Trac off and ECT buttons. They reside to the right of the steering column but to the left of the Start/Stop button


Quick Reply: Some IS-350 PICS i took today.....
