Default New owner, with a question!



Hey guys. I am the new owner of a 2016 IS350 F Sport, in blue. I love the car. Picked it up today from the showroom floor.

My question is very stupid. I tried researching but found nothing. When I walk up to the car, it auto unlocks... But how do you lock the vehicle without using the FOB? On my other 11 is350 there is a button you press on the handle. I don't see one?

Thanks!

There is a dimple in the handle. Touch and it locks.

There's an indent on the top of the handle that you touch to lock the car. You can only do this on the driver's door and front passenger's door.

Congrats on the beautiful car! Welcome to the forum!

Great looking ride. I'm still learning all the technology of my recently purchased 2014 IS 250, following 17 years driving a 2000 Honda Civic with manual crank windows.

My instructions to the folks at the dealership giving me the walkthrough: "Treat this as if this car is a smartphone and I'm one of your grandparents..."

The little dimple on the driver side handle that locks the car is a nice, subtle touch.

Beautiful. I just picked up the same color a few weeks ago. Not sure about Canada, but here in NJ. I have only seen one in this color. Tons of black and white, but no UBM. I dont see a rear spoiler on yours. Did it come with one?

I picked up a UBM here in NYC, I get so many compliments on the color. LOVE the red interior. Congrats on the purchase!

No, they do not call come with illuminated door sills. It is an approx $245 option . It's nice to have because the illuminated sills come with aluminum rears as well and replace the all plastic ones.

Hmmm that's weird cause there are def door sills on both sides of the front seats, with the LEXUS letters, it's just that they don't Illuminated.
