Exactly, need to be more power ..shift faster ...sound sportier ..and the beep tells you when to shift..I hate to look at the rpm when I use the paddle shift sometime..Anyway the shift on my car is horrible...I rev about 6300 rpm and started shifted up and it so slow delay which brought the engine to red line before the next gear kick in..

My wife would love to have (in addition to the Nav, Bluetooth, and the general electronics),
1. Park Assist in front and back
2. Rear View Camera with Advanced Parking Guidance System (APGS)
3. Blind spot detection
4. Hybrid

Basically, she wants a smaller version (and could be less powerful) of the GS450h.

I am probably the only person, but I would want to see the manual transmission come back somehow even though it was canned in the 2013 IS250. Chances of it coming back are obviously slim to none, but I can still dream.

I wish Torsen limited-slip differential on the 350s!

I think this 3IS deserves a much better navigation system .... perhaps a nice 3D Bird's Eye View ??? Gotta give the consumers a reason to want to purchase the tech/nav package when there's so many GPS units looking much better than Lexus's $2K option UGH ???

I think Lexus in general needs a better navigation system....Google Maps>Lexus Nav, although I do commend them for the interface, but Google Maps and Apple Maps(FAIL) as far as APPEARANCE is nicer than Lexus for the eyes...I just saw the inside of a 2014 vette and it comes with the LCD dash as well...
