Hey,Guys just want to Introduce my self real quick, Im New to this site
Ok,Well I live in California and I been waiting for years to buy a lexus since I was a kid and now that I can afford one its time to get my self what I have always wanted. Im looking into the IS250 With nav, My question is "Will a new model come out this year 2010"? A redesign?
I would like to know before jumping on one now.. I love the current '10 but I would rather wait and see whats coming!

I hope to get to know you all, and Thanks!

Sal

No detail of the 3rd Gen so far, so it will not be release this year.

Probably the best guess for a 3IS is in late 2011 as a 2012 model. Look for the next 4GS to give hint as to possible styling similarities for the 3IS

Welcome to CL.

There might be a possible facelift coming up, but the only nice thing is the headlights.
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-facelift.html

As far as 3rd Gen, there isn't any real sources that have stated a year of when it would be released. However, most speculations point to 2012. I myself think it would be the 2013 model because Lexus is planning ot release the AWD IS350. Or was it Manual IS350... Can't remember but there's a thread somewhere in this section.

I just sold my 04 Cobra vert. (525 hp) to buy my 07 IS350. I enjoyed driving the Cobra but love driving the IS.
