plus, if i wanted a nice interior, i would buy an Audi any day over a Lexus. not much more expensive, a better interior, and 100x more fun to drive.

now lets compare an IS350 to a Camry. the design/console/buttons are basically the exact same. the IS350 is twice the price. i don't need to sit in an IS350 to unbias my opinion, because i would never consider buying one. a camry on the other hand is a much better deal.

And audi cost how much? 50k for the a4? With only 260 HP?? How fast is it???? 1/4 mile in 14 seconds?

Your not even comparing apple to apple. Your comparing a is250 manual to a camry. The camry doesn't even have leather seats. How is that even a direct comparison?

I seriously don't see anything they have in common?? Not to mention, the is250 have way better interior than the 335. And it only cost 30k.

Umm, you have to sit inside one to have a "valid" opinion. How can you have an opinion on something you've never experienced?

Also he's never even sat inside of an IS-series car and is trying to form an opinion on its interior.

Ive test driven an 07 350 before I bought my 335 coupe and although it looks alot more plush, its a car designed for midgets. I am 6'0'' 175lbs and the console is so narrow you cant sit with your legs too far apart. I felt the center console all up on my right leg while I drove it. It's got a nice interior but its just too small for my taste, its designed with asian people in mind, very small and petite lol

An IS250 costs 30k, an A4 2.0T costs 32k.

And by your reasoning in your post about the CTS-V, an IS isn't even worth the money cuz it's ugly.

NewSong · 10-21-2008, 02:48 PM

The CTS-V is far uglier than the IS-F. Far.

again, in your opinion.

imo, the IS-F is EASILY one of the ugliest cars i've seen in recent auto history. the bumper surrounding the exhaust looks like dough, the hood's way too big, the bumper makes it look like a dolphin, and i'm not even gonna bother with the exhaust. but hey, it has nice wheels.

a4 3.2 starts at 40k.. Shouldn't a 335/is350 be compared to a a4 price wise?

A loaded one cost 50k..

sigh.. this guy is ignorant. He's against all japanese cars obviously. Euro fan boys are ftl..

. no point wasting time talking to kids.. he even admit he is bias..

mikeokimster · 10-21-2008, 03:14 PM

Is300 is a nice car. Interior is a bit tight, but came in a nice pkg.

and just so you know, i love infinitis. they're great options for the money. i'd take a g37 over a 328i anyday. i just don't care about lexus. the only car they have that looks semi-interesting to me is the GS. and i'll say that the LS is better than the 7. honestly, if anything you're being the ignorant one because you keep resorting to the same shit.

WAYNEBO · 10-21-2008, 03:49 PM

Loved my IS300.... never gave me problems like my e92. The Lexus is like the girl-next-door, and the BMW is the hot girlfriend that is sick in the head but you just can't kick out of bed.

I had extravegant plans for a Supra turbo motor swap, but switched once the 335i coupe came out. I shoulda kept that damn car.

How much do you weigh? 800 pounds?

There is plenty of room in an IS and I'm taller than you (I'm 6'4).

I never called anyone a Euro fanboy either.

But seriously, dudes name is "Bimmer Loyalist" and he said he is biased against Toyotas.

All I said above was that the IS-series cars have way better interior in my opinion (more posh, and way more comfortable). I could've bought an IS-series car, and I didn't, so you know which one I preferred overall.

It's just that the BMW fanboys in this thread can't accept that their car is not the best at something.
