2007 4dr Sedan 306-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The seats are very comfortable for the size car. see full Lexus IS review
2006 4dr Sedan 204-horsepower 2.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
The good of the front seat comfort is that the seats are ventilated. They could be stronger and cooler but that is my preference. Why is it that we cant get Audis, BMWs, or Lexus with fabric seats in the US? see full Lexus IS review

We do not have small children, and only small children could fit back there. see full Lexus IS review

Even large children will struggle to fit. see full Lexus IS review

The front seat headrests are too far back for me. I feel if I use them I am looking at the sky because of their angle. I would prefer some fwd-rev adjustment which i have seen on other cars. see full Lexus IS review

Why doesn't this vehicle have heated front seats (they only cost a tenner or so at manufacturing time) and why doesn't it have electric front seats with memory (it is particularly annoying to have to try and reset the seat after the garage has had the car and adjusted it to their liking)! Again electric front seats don;t really cost anything much to build in. see full Mazda Mazda6 review
