Thumbs up New IS250c owner from Mt. Juliet, TN



Hi everyone!

Recently purchased a 2011 IS250c from the original owner. 70,000 miles. This is my first Lexus, and is my daily driver. I really like the car and the gas mileage is better than I expected.

1. Exterior Color - Black
2. Nav/ML or No Nav/ML - Nav without ML, unfortunately.
3. Interior color choice - Saddle
4. Pre-crash/or other options - Loaded with exception of ML
5. PICS, PICS, PICS!!!
6 state which city/country your representing! - Mt. Juliet, TN (20 miles east of Nashville)

beautiful
congrats

I had a deal on a dark blue with that saddle interior
then went to look at it, and paint was scratched to hell

so I went with matador/alabaster. Bought mine with 7,800 miles and now has about 9,800 miles

loving it

enjoy the car in good health

Hey Gang,

Got my 350c back in April and have absolutely 0 regrets purchasing my first Lexus after having 4 BMW's. It's not a perfect vehicle, but more than makes up for it with how much fun and enjoyment I get driving the car.

Obsidian
Nav/No ML
Black
Upgraded rims w/ summer tires, CPO, stock for now, but some light mods are coming ;-)
Will get some pics up soon!

Default 2015 is 250c

Hi all,
Bought a 2015 250c with 21,000 on the odometer just of the lease. My wife's primary driver. She loves it. Also picked up a 2005 RX330 about 2 weeks ago with 34500 miles on it.

She has much cooler cars than me. (The Red one is hers also)

Thanks for the reply Ryan. You have some really low miles. Seems like many of the ISc's have low miles. Thanks for the correction on the paint color. I mixed it up with something else. Cool paint name though . . .Matador Red. I am really looking forward to interacting with everyone!!

welcome sir!

Yeah tons of used ISC with dirt low miles and terrible depreciation. When i was shopping in 2016/2017, my requirement was under 10k miles with the newest updates. I had almost 17 cars to choose from. My criteria was albaster (white) interior which limited to some color options. I didnt want black, silver, white or gray. 1 owner and mint low miles

i bought mine 3600 miles away. Mint condition. Winter area... where it was hardly driven by original owner - as they had 13 other vehicles.

We are enjoying ours it is a heavy pig - but our requirements were true 4 seater japanese convertible. This, the q60 and old solara were the only ones 4 people fit and thats how we came down to this one

Happy to join the ISC club! Just picked up a 2011 IS250C with 38K miles on it from a friend. They bought it brand new and rarely drove it, I borrowed it quite a bit and told them if they wanted to sell it to keep me in mind. Sure enough the convo came up and in my garage it went! I have always been a fan of convertible cars ever since my youth and the hardtop convertibles have always been a fav. This is by far the nicest vehicle I have ever owned, it will be strictly a spring/summer/fall nice weather vehicle for me. I noticed in the 2011 Brochure it mentioned the NAV/ML system has DVD as well, I haven't tried one in it yet. Also I'm not sure if Lexus offers a maintenance/service plan for used cars or if its worth it.

1. Matador Red Mica
2. NAV/Enform
3. Alabaster interior
4. 18" wheel/tire combo, Luxury package
5. Ohio

Thanks! Love seeing all the ISC's in this thread. Yes, the interior and covers has black bits here and there. I'm still digging through the owners manual bible. I have to check and see if the Radar/Dynamic Cruise control is on the car.

congratulations to all the new members of the club! it is quite exclusive considering how few ISC's are out there The volkswageon EOS club is also extremely tight knit as well with their hard top vert.

Hello All- I posted this pic in the other forum not realizing there was a separate IS-C community within. I've been an IS-C guy since 2012...this is my second. (2015 IS-350c Fsport -- with a few mods )
