Hi,
So I'm considering getting myself an 06 IS250 as an everyday car, while my brand new car would be for weekends or sunny days, but I have a few questions on the IS250

1. Can I install the facelifted LED Headlights and Taillights on the 06?

2. Is there anyway to get the navigation system top to date?

3. Where would I buy the OEM Headlights and taillights?

 

Just browse different sites for headlight

 

Or the stealership

 

1. Yes but there are some wiring to do. If you want to avoid wiring, call Swell Lexus; they sell pre-wired headlights.
2. You can buy the disc to update but not sure if it is most up to date.
3. Ebay, Lexus dealers, classfields, IS groups on FB

 

i have 4 months until i order my car now, andi live in NJ & need the awd, but i can get a truck for the winter when i need it if i ended up with a turbo. my question to you IS200t owners is, is the car slow with acceleration? does it have a decent amount if power? is the fuel economy much better? i will be driving mostly in the country area, not highways. i also am still debating on the F-Sport or luxury because i want seat memory and real leather, just because nuluxe doesn't stay shiny with leather wipes, and the black color is really dull. What are your opinions??

 

Whatever car you end up getting don't get black leather. Black always makes the interior less nice than it actually is

 

Didn't you make a thread like this a while back?

 

I've got black, since I like the cockpit being dark. Red would probably make me go crazy, since my car is a DD.

 

exactly. this is like the third (?) time you've created a variation-on-the-same-theme sort of thread.

your dad owns a toyota dealership. like, come on, take both cars out for an extended test drive.

 

Not to mention, I don't even think he's got his license yet. Kid's still in high school, he linked his IG account lol

Plus, this topic of is200t vs "bla bla bla" has already been beat down many many many many many times.

 

i just cant make up my mind honestly, and yeah i only have my permit but i was just asking for opinions, no need to be rude

 

Not to be rude, but OP, you can get all of these questions answers just from 1 visit to the dealership

You can compare the seat types and colors at the dealership by physically sitting on them and feeling it.

Acceleration can be tested from a simple test drive comparison.

Fuel economy... EPA gas mileage is a good reference, and there are plenty of fuel economy threads here for you to look up. It will also depend on how you drive. So i'm not sure what you want others to say.

 

I'm just saying, you had created a thread like this before asking for opinions, and there were pages and pages of it. Why create a new one, when all you will get is the same answers...

 

no he can't. He only has a learners permit

 

And it's still at least 4 months away. There'll be another thread 2 months away. And another one before heading to the dealership. Then oh I got a BMW thread
