The interior and dash is a head of its time. That interior was designed in 2006... it's now 2017 and still looks better then some interiors on brand new cars
I rev the shat out of mine all the time for fun lol, these cars are detuned with their rev limiters from factory anyways they put it at 6500 for reliability, but it can still be reliable even at 7200rpm
This car is fun for what it is. It's kinda like a smaller & modern Cressida. I love it. Definitely need to review the 1st gen and 3rd gen IS in the near future! The IS are very underrated cars.
The cup holders in the glove box could be from the designers, they tend to just modify previous year designs as most of the beginner engineers are in charge of smaller details. If there is something in the CAD data that no one knows the purpose of, they tend to leave it as long as it doesn't cause any issues.
No. He's fat. And he's wearing pants that are approximately an order of magnitude smaller than his waist. I can see where you might get confused, though.
you guys dont even own a bmw so why are u saying that plus the technology and engineering is alot better so dont even try comparing to bmw coz japanese cars will never beat german engineering
Aight Boom butt hurt BMW fanboy lol oh yeah so you prefer complicated impossible to work on yourself vs smart efficient and has the same outcome engineering?
Ferguson101 I'm in the middle where I can only have one car so I need a reliable family car, but only a few years out from having extra cash for a full on track car. I want something JDM right hand drive for sure.
Two months ago I saw a 2007-2008 BMW that had its whole front part on fire. Probably from the overheated engine and plastics. The owners stood outside and just recorded it. And surprisingly enough, the turn signals nor the emergency lights were on.
Ive driven a 2009 IS250. It was the smoothest, most rev happy engine I've ever experienced it just didn't make any power stock. The 250 with an intake and exhaust sounds like a naturally aspirated 2J
I haven't heard anything positive from RCR in a long while. I miss the days of sarcastic wit with a splash of optimistic criticism. Now it's just non stop negative cynicism, plus the sarcastic funny jokes have been flat for a while now. I hope they get their shit together and go back to videos that were very fun to watch.
I have the F-Sport Intake and a Tanabe exhaust on my 07 IS350 and it makes the driving experience 5x better. The sound the 2GRFSE makes is so underrated!
Keshav Kumar people are just haters they will try to make fun of a Lexus such as saying that if you can't afford BMW get a Lexus etc etc I'm on my second Lexus now the gs430 I will never get rid of I'll probably just get a GS F the next time but like I was saying people just don't understand how awesome these cars are the exhaust you put on your car sounds great but I understand that haters will just keep hating and never understand because they'll never get into one. I was a lexus technician for 5 years during that time the IS350 just came out great little car the hundred miles per hour in that car and in my gs430 it's like we're doing 65 people just don't understand that
Correct me if I'm wrong but when he asked where would he put this in terms of Infiniti and the owner said M35, shouldn't it be the G35 instead? I think the M35 would be a competitor to the Lexus GS or maybe even the LS,but definitely not the IS
Hello, Mr. Regular and Roman! Loving your content. Hey, have you heard of the Y-49 CRX curse? I'd love to see a video about the story of the Barbados Yellow. Word is that the paint has killed some workers at Honda.
I would never understand the people who brag so much about the mid rear seat,being shortened by the RWD shaft tunnel. I got wife and two kids and never ever needed to make our car a bus. If accidently we need to put some of the kids friend there,never heard anyone complaining. I want to see and talk to the person,who travels with 4 adults in the car on a daily basis. That's like to get a FWD car and to complain why you can't go off roading. Sure,if you get a RWD platform car,you will get that tunnel,if you will use it as a taxi,get a FWD car without the hump. As simple as that.
S.T T. Right. This reviewer is a tool box. It's basically a coupe and he's bitching about middle rear seat legroom and cup indents on the inside of the glovebox...on the most reliable sporty car from 2006...that also has the best resale of any mainstream car.
Agree about the comfort I have an 08 is250. On short daily drives not bad comfort and smooth riding (which is why I bought it) and on long trips the stiffer handling wears me out. But I still love my baby girl.
SO injection moulds are silly expensive, and take an awful lot of expertise (as spoken around 1:30) to design properly. Chances are they used an old one, simply because it'll save them, potentially, millions on manufacture - not just making the moulds, but also all the design that goes into, well, designing a mould. You gotta know how the plastic is going to shrink as it cools, and get that right for every part. You gotta know how the part will come out, how it fits to other parts and how well it fits into the machine you're using.
My aunt bought an IS250 new in 2009. She loved it up until she had issues with the interior build quality for the past few years. There was a recall for the issues but the dealerships made waiting lists for over a year for owners, so she got pissed about it and traded it in for a BMW X1.
I know it’s up to what people offer you and maybe when mine runs good enough to make that long trip from Texas to PA, I’ll offer to head up so y’all can do a review! But I’d love to see a review of the 1980-1986.5 Datsun/Nissan 720 Pickup. I have one and I love it! It’s a bulletproof little truck that just won’t stop. I’ve even driven the 1986.5-1997 D21 (which y’all have reviewed.) it’s nice, but I think the 720 was still way better as far as quality and style. As you said in the D21 video, they don’t make them like that anymore... thanks chicken tax!
No, it was because it wasn't completely turned off (see the nav screen was still on). After the drive, he probably pushed the start/stop button before putting it in park. It only shuts completely down when you have it in park. That's what often happens when people (that are normally used to manual cars) drive in mine too.
When I had to get another car I was thinking about an is 250 since they came in manual but kinda need awd and got a crv. I wasn't worried about the 250 being slow.
with how fast it breaks down? how much the total cost of ownership is? Or how everyone on the road assumes youre black? Why would you be impressed with any of these?
CasperInkyMagoo I own one actually and it's been in the family since new (2003). Major issues have included a water pump and one radiator. It has over 355,00 kms right now and runs perfect.
First you insult the car and then you abuse it Get your driving license before you test other people cars instead of saying sorry when you break something please
