2008 Lexus IS Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by ****dheinz1

Reliability & durability

Very very reliable and will remain so for a long time.

Safety & braking

Extremely safe car, has done very well in crash tests. Loaded with safety features and stability control is quite effective.

Exterior styling

Looks great, everyone seems to like it pretty well.

Ride smoothness

Very composed ride. Can be a tad jarring over very large bumps because of its low profile, but in general it is an excellent ride.

Rear seat room & comfort

The rear seats are very comfortable, but TINY.

Cargo capacity

Smallish trunk, and I would definitely not use it to tow anything substantial.

Powertrain performance

The IS250 could use and extra 40-50hp and 50ft lbs of torque. IS350 is excellent
