Lexus IS 250 test drive

finally after so many reschedule of test drive of the Lexus IS 250, i get to drive it today.

compared to the UK spec Naza imported Lexus IS 250, this one is a full luxury spec. the difference is Mark Levinson audio, memory seat, electronic steering adjustment.

start the engine like normal.. depress the brake and press the start button...the steering feels so blardy light....so easy to drive... the accelleration is not instantaneous like 3 series or C class. it gives gradual power... very smooth engine.. very smooth gear box... 6 speed auto... barely feel any gear change.

only one turn off.... when the car is running at low speed... it's bumpy.. it's even bumpier than my vios or camry... but at high speed.. the car is SUPER steady... considering it's a 17 inch.... not 16...

next year they are launching a basic model, which doesn't have the mark levinson audio, Bi-Xenon, memory seat, electric steering adjustment, headlamp cleaner, ventilated seats, calf leather instead of smooth aged leather. but the most attractive thing is that.. the price is speculating around 250 to 270K.. which is a whole 30 to 50K of reduction....

their best selling is GS series... intereting...
