Picked up an Ultra White 2019 IS300 AWD F-Sport Series 1 with Black interior 2 months ago. Used to have a VIP Styled CT200h and although I miss that car, I figured it was time to move on.
Mods so far:
-Lexus OEM Window Visors
-RSR Down Springs
-Work Wheels Emotion CR Kiwami's in Matte Bronze Finish w/Optional Red Center Caps
Trying to keep it as OEM+ as possible LOL but will probably do a few more light mods here and there.

Welcome fellow canuck! Bronze for the win! Looking good.
New here. Just purchased 2016 Lexus IS 200t F Sport
Hi all, 2 days ago I got my first car: this 2016 IS 200t F Sport in Eminent White Pearl with a Rioja Red interior. Came off a 36 month lease and only has 21,000 miles. Needs a new tint in the rear already though, the Florida heat shriveled this one up. I don’t wanna mod it too much. I may change the wheels out in a year or so, the thing I wanted to change the most was the very small infotainment screen. Especially when I’m used to driving my mom’s Mercedes S560 with a TWELVE+ inch screen. May go with an android head unit. More to come
Welcome to the forum. I bought my 2016 IS200t F sport last December and love it. You might have a hard time finding a drop in replacement for the screen and head unit. Crutchfield recommends to not replace either.

New to me 2017 IS300 AWD F-Sport owner and I have a couple questions I haven't been able to find the answers on this forum.
I just went in for my 35,000 Maintenance at the dealer and they recommended breaks and tires on the back on the upcoming 40,000 maintenance.
They also recommended differential fluid change which they charge around 220 for, is this a good price?
What tires (Dealer recommended conties) and breaks/calipers should I be looking at?
Also should I try to find a good independent shop? How do you guys go about finding a trustworthy shop?
I used to do a lot of the maintenance on my old A4 but I'm trying to get away from that. What kind of prices should I be looking for at an independent
Edit: I forgot to add I'm in Columbus, Ohio. Maybe you guys know some good independent body shops in my area?

The diff fluid change price of $220 seems ok, but I'm assuming it's for both diff's, not one.
Anything is better than the Turanza's, and lots of people use the Conties...so a good choice there.
You'd have to see what the dealer is charging for the brakes...likely just OEM rotors and pads i'm guessing.
Been meaning to join this forum for a while ! I am from / living in the U.K. , Europe and got a 2015 3gen IS300h hybrid I believe you guys don't have this spec in the USA, I've bought this car few years ago, when I got bit more time I upload some pics ! Great site so many interesting cars here, in Europe Lexus is not too common like in the USA and certainly not many tuned /customised ones !
I finally traded in my 2008 IS350 (RWD) that I have had new since 2008. Let it go with 240,000 kms on it. The car still ran great. Never put any money into it other than maintenance. Still pulled hard and got great gas mileage but.......
.......RWD in Canadian winters was a pain. On to a newer model. 2015 IS350 F Sport (F3). AWD. Only have had it a day but love it. It is familiar yet new.
I have a 2016 IS200t F-sport. It is white with red interior. I am just starting to mod, cold air intake on it's way, also thinking downpipe midpipe and axel back with a burger tuning box (let me know if you have opinions on the plans).
Hello!
i currently own a 2012 IS350 F Sport. I’m suprising my daughter and passing it down to her. I’m thinking about a used ISF or RCF and wondering if any of you have any thoughts.
Hey everyone,
Been on this site a while, but always in the RX forums; have owned a 300 and wife currently owns a 350. Just bought a 2016 IS 300 F Sport AWD. Upgraded from an Altima SR, 3.5, with the dreaded CVT.
One owner, clear carfax, local trade. New Yokohama tires and pads/rotors all around. Official color is "Nebula Gray Pearl" with a "Stratus Gray" interior. Solid service history from what I researched on Lexus' website prior to purchasing.
