Lexus just announced the price for its third-generation IS sport sedan, which will start at $36,845 including delivery.
That price applies to the base rear-wheel drive IS 250 equipped with the 2.5-liter V6. As you might remember from AutoGuide’s review, Lexus left the same engines under the hood as its previous generation. That, of course, means a 2.5- and 3.5-liter V6 making 204 hp and 185 lb-ft of torque for the smaller and 306 hp and 277 lb-ft for the more potent version.
Opting for that car will cost $40,360, which is actually 2.1 percent cheaper than the previous IS 350 model. Once again, that price applies to the base rear-wheel drive version, although customers will likely want to upgrade to the F-Sport package with that car.
Doing so will cost $3,620, but of the available option packages – four in total – this is likely the most valuable. That’s because it does more than offer special cabin materials, wheels and a meaner front fascia. Customers also get the same eight-speed automatic
Live, from New York, it's...Saturday night? Nope, it's Friday night, actually, when Lexus is set to debut its Design Matters initiative celebrating its commitment to international design. Hosted by none other than Toyota Motor Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer Akio Toyoda, the event will showcase how “Design Matters” to Lexus. An approximately 20-minute live broadcast will take place on Friday 19 April 2013 starting at 9 PM Eastern Time (6 PM Pacific Time), visible at Livestream.com/Lexus.
The precise contents of the webcast remain an enigmatic mystery, with an invitation to share Lexus' passion for design, a Facebook teaser stating that "Appreciation of design is one thing. Our total dedication to it is something all together different" and a Twitter tweet that "(Lexus') commitment to design has no end but on April 19th, it will have a showcase" the sole clues of any consequence. We will note, however, that this Lexus Design Matters event was... [Read More]
Given that we are on the verge of seeing beyond a major auto show setting and being able to drive and buy what is only the third generation of our beloved Lexus IS sports sedan, we'd say that the sheer breadth and scope of information on the tweaks and changes, minor and major in comparison to its long-lived 2nd-gen predecessor, not to mention myriad differences across the various world markets all threaten to engulf us in information overload. This is, after all, a website, and not an encyclopedic coffee table book. Thus, we've opted to break down the information into more easily digestible individual articles. Thus far, we've delved into launch timing & body styles; drives in camoed prototypes (ours and everyone else's); initial and followup photo & video reveal articles; ... [Read More]
