I know u hear my footsteps. Scans of CAR IS 250 preview (it gets 4 out of 5 stars)
 
Oh oh, looks like I am warming up :D For those that don't know, it is VERY tough for Lexus to get favorable reviews in the Euro mags like CAR, EVO and Top Gear as they are VERY, VERY biased towards sport. Everything else falls 3rd fiddle. Its not just Lexus, if your car doesn't engage the driver, your review will be average at best.

The IS 250, got 4 out of 5 stars which is a TREMENDOUS accomplishment. And B/C I luv u, I scanned it :D ENJOY!!!!

More European mag scans to come.

IT FEELS GOOD TO BE BACK!!!

BTW, Europe does not get the 350 yet and the 220 diesal will be sold shortly.

Thanks MIKE! That's good news.

on the side note, they havent driven/review IS350 yet:D 4out of 5 would become 6 out of 5. :D (100hps more deserve 2 more stars, doesnt it?)

Great scan, thx!! And good news for the New IS.

BTW, interesting how the rear pic makes it seem like the rear light curves are 'holding up' the license plate...very interesting.

Cool and very quick review. Glad they liked it. :thumbup:

Again, this is a very big deal for Lexus to get such favorable commentary.

Again, this is an incredible response, ESPECIALLY in Top Gear, another very sport focused magazine. Kudos to Lexus!!
