Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2010	4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Lousey seats: uncomfortable and build is cheap and not conforming to human posture. But, seems last several years most cars have lousey, cheap and uncomfortable seats. see full Lexus IS review

2009	4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Cramped rear seat. Minimal knee and leg room when there is a front driver/passenger. Minimal room for the toddler when sitting in a car seat. Seats 2 small kids at best. see full Lexus IS review

2009	4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	This is a small car. Interior seating is comfortable but tight. Unless the driver is very short, forget about the back seat. see full Lexus IS review
