Yes, I wanted a sporty but somewhat subdued look. Its the shade and texture of the Rioja that makes it work so well with the grey, I think. If I had gone with BMW, I felt their red was way to bright and loud, even though their mineral grey is a beutiful shade. Well, at any rate, enjoy your car!!

New here...a little background
Hi everybody,
I'm really loving my 2014 IS250 F-Sport. A little background on how I got here....I bought a Mercedes CLA back in October and it had nothing but problems. The whole process was extremely frustrating but fortunately Mercedes USA agreed to buy the car back. I looked at several cars to replace it including the BMW 328i, Audi A4 and Cadillac ATS. I drove the IS250 last and instantly fell in love. Everything about it is better than the CLA so the incident turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Here's a pic of my baby. Glad to be a part of this forum.

Ordered by IS 350
Ordered my IS 350 F-sport last week. It is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Can't wait.
Exterior: Matador Red Mica
Interior: Black
BSM, F-sport Package, Navigation package. Added aftermarket Parking sensors to the front. I tried to get ML Audio, but the dealer could not find anywhere in the state. Bummer. But I might just add aftermarket audio.

Thanks guys. Picked up a few hours ago. Stunning in person. I wish I had gotten one with ML audio though. Other than that solid car. Went to the highway and pushed it a little bit. Handles like a dream. I will put up pictures soon.

Hello,
Ryan reporting in. I picked up a IS 250 with RWD this weekend. I think I was asked 4-5 times if I was aware the car isn't AWD. Here in the Northeast that is what everyone buys.
Atomic Silver
Black interior
Only option is the LED head lights with heated seats combo. My first Lexus.

Newbie here,
Greetings from the lovely island of Guam!
Just picked up a 2014 IS 350 Fsport
Ultra White/Light Gray Interior/Nav/Mark Levinson/Sunroof
Couldn't be happier with my purchase. I previously owned a 2012 IS 350 Fsport but soon upgraded once I laid eyes on the new model. Very pleased on how they revamped both the interior and exterior of the IS model. Good to be a part of this forum and looking forward to all the threads.
Respectfully,
