I tot lexus IS250 is quite solid?

 

I generally quite like the brand over some continental brands like merc or jarguar or those associated with uncles..

 

hmm.. is lexus that bad? anyone?

[YellowFlash]

i dont think is that bad...well they can comment on anything they think, we dont have to take them seriously

[Crummytyre]

JC didn't say the IS250 is bad. In fact, he says it's good! Good quality, good comfort, good value. Only thing is that it doesn't invoke that passion in you or any women looking at you. He said it, not me.

well the gs300 and is250 desgin is excellent.... and ignorant abt cars??? which engine can boast a dual vvt-i plus direct injection now.. at least at this end of the market with respect to the is250...

Not everyone want passion in a car ma.. some want practicality, some want speed, some want brand.. hiaz.. those silly ppl

I second that; to each his own.

 

As for J Clarkson, I'm sure he'll have the lexus PR folks wining and dining him soon enough.

Clarkson has to inject some controversy, as usual, to make sure his articles are read regularly.
