This is basically the best car a mid range budget can buy

You can't get a better mix of luxury and sporty feel in a car. And it's a sedan with a v6 so cheaper insurance and more room for fun rides with friends.
>inb4 muh ecoboost/camaro/miata girl car
It's still about as fast, but what it has that those don't is luxury and usable back seats. The interior on mustangs is shit, and every camaro besides the 16 has shitty interiors, and both are uncomfortable to drive for long periods. The miata is irrelevant. Not only that but a lexus badge looks a lot better to bitches than a goddamn chevy/ford badge.
>inb4 lol muh v6
cheaper insurance, still fast, can add a turbo.
>inb4 muh boring lexus/toyota meme
It looks better and more professional than any sports car you could name. Anyone who argues this is 16 and works at mcdonalds and doesnt have a white collar corporate job.
Literally the god machine
>inb4 buttblasted benchracers mad that they ride the bus and cant afford a cheap 30k car

For the same cash you could get a first gen IS300, JZ-GTE swap it, and have a 4-door stealth Supra.
I actually cross shopped it and the mustang. Is250/350/f is too small you must be a manlet. Pic related. What I bought
automatic only so its cuck and ugly predator face
for the same money you could buy a e46 m3 or something in pristine condition

Muh modern car design

>no manual trans
Into the trash it goes
Why a 3rd gen though? 2nd gen is as fast as a c5 corvette and round the same price (15k). Isn't 3rd gen IS slower? Just nicer inside. Why pay 15k for interior?
>>15443579
>30k
>1st gen IS300
You're a retard.
>>15443549
It looks like some taped a braun men's shaver to the front end

I like the IS and am even considering buying December, but it is definitely the ugliest of the luxury compacts right now. That's it's only down side in my opinion, and the poor rear legroom.
>>15443579
AYYE
I didn't GTE swap it though, I just had someone swap the internals for me.

Only incompetent drivers think that manual is uncomfortable or impractical in the city.
Kind of highlights what's wrong with Lexus, everything they make other than the LFA is for just out of college cucks who are eager to buy a car but can't afford a Mercedes, so they buy a soulless piece of garbage that has a bigger grill than hank hill.
If you've had experience with cars and know that numbers alone don't make a good one, you'll see through the Lexus meme pretty fast.

> "but can't afford a Mercedes"
Mercedes CLA starting at $32K
Lexus IS starting at $37K
> " is for just out of college cucks who are eager to buy a car"
"The average Lexus buyer is 61, compared with 54 for Mercedes and 49 for BMW. The current IS draws buyers with an average age of 50"
You're wrong
>>15443549
>30k used car
If you have a house and make over 80k, go for it.
Otherwise, get a Civic. At least that's how I justified my Civic.
What about an IS250?
>>15443584
it's not. the generation before was too small - this generation grew a lot and it's big now.
