2011 lexus is 250 review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Lineup of sports sedans, coupes and convertibles expands further. introductionthe lexus is lineup of sports sedans, coupes and convertibles expands for 2011 with more performance and more all-wheel drive availability. The lexus is models, available in three body styles, are designed to offer style and performance comparable to that of the bmw 3 series but at lower prices. 2011 lexus is 250 and is 350 are available with a new f sport package. And lexus is sedans get subtle styling revisions for 2011. The f-sport package 2,440) for is 250 rwd and is 350 rwd includes the f-sport suspension, sport pedals, aluminum scuff plates, special 18-inch alloy wheels with 225/40r18 tires (summer or all-season), front and rear spoilers, sport grille, sport steering wheel and shift knob, sport seat with microfiber inserts, heated front seats. the lexus is models are built on a rear-wheel-drive platform, the correct choice for sporty handling. Trim, sleek and relatively light, these cars offer paddle-shift transmissions, good brakes and strong acceleration performance. Boasting 306 horsepower, the lexus is 350 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5. 3 seconds. the is f is a special high-performance coupe powered by a 416-horsepower 5. 0-liter v8, allowing it to compete with the bmw m3. Boasting a top speed of 170 mph, the is f is fast by any measure. The sedan is comfortable for two and can seat five, but it is not a family car like the lexus es 350. The back seat is not commodious, with rear legroom at a premium, though there is a car seat anchor for the little one. the lexus is 250 c and is 350 c are true convertibles, converting from hardtop coupe to top-down roadster with the press of a button. With the top up, they look like coupes. With the top down, they look like convertibles. for 2011, new hid headlamps with led daytime running lamps are standard on the is 350 and optional on the is 250. In addition, a new front grille and bumper highlight the 2011 lexus is sedans, while at the rear, there's a new taillamp cover and revised tailpipe design. The is models also feature new standard 17-inch and optional 18-inch wheels. the new f sport package for 2011 is 250 and is 350 rear-wheel-drive models uses the new suspension tuning of the is f, and 18-inch alloy wheels with a dark super-chrome finish. The f sport package includes a front lip spoiler and rear deck spoiler, a matching dark chrome front grille insert, f sport badging, and the addition of ultrasonic blue mica to the exterior colors. For the interior, unique front seats feature a special microfiber insert and leather side bolsters to provide grip for the driver and passenger during cornering, and f sport badging to the steering wheel. all 2011 lexus models have a standard new brake override system that automatically reduces power when the gas and brake pedals are applied at the same time. lineup2011 lexus is models come standard with leather upholstery; dual-zone climate control; smartaccess keyless entry with pushbutton engine start; and a satellite-ready 194-watt, 13-speaker stereo with 6cd changer and mp3 auxiliary audio input jack. the is 250 comes with a 2. 5-liter v6 engine and a 6-speed manual gearbox 32,145) or 6-speed automatic 33,315). The is 250 awd 35,775) features all-wheel drive and comes standard with the automatic transmission. The awd model also gets special perforated leather upholstery and bird's-eye maple trim. the is 350 38,570) comes with a 3. 5-liter v6 and 6-speed automatic. More sophisticated braking and electronic stability systems augment its additional performance. The 2011 is 350 awd 41,030) adds all-wheel drive. the f-sport package 2,440) for is 250 rwd and is 350 rwd includes the f-sport suspension, sport pedals, aluminum scuff plates, special 18-inch alloy wheels with 225/40r18 tires (summer or all-season), front and rear spoilers, sport grille, sport steering wheel and shift knob, sport seat with microfiber inserts, heated front seats. the is 250 c and is 350 c are two-door models that feature a convertible hardtop, the is 250 c is available with 6-speed manual 39,890) or 6-speed automatic. The is 350 c is also available with a choice of manual 41,060) or automatic 45,340). the 2011 is 350c f sport special edition 55,120) comes loaded with everything. Only 175 of them will be built. (all new car test drive prices are manufacturer's suggested retail prices, which do not include destination charge and may change at any time without notice.) the is f 59,010) is a special high-performance coupe featuring a powerful v8 engine, 8-speed transmission, speed-rated tires, and sports suspension. walkaroundlexus is sedans employ tightly drawn, edgy bodywork to create a sophisticated, sporty identity. The convertible is c and the high-performance is f models have longer bodies and unique body panels, but all models share the lexus is family resemblance. a wide track and high rear deck give the is the crouching, forward leaning stance of a sprinter in the blocks. The front tires are one size smaller than the rear tires, which accentuates the road-hungry look. High performance, high-efficiency led taillights, brake lights and license plate lights are molded into the design. The windshield angle has been revised, and every body panel except the hood required some modification to blend with the folding roof. Visually, with the top down, the isc looks lower and wider than the sedan. to make access to the rear more practical, the doors are longer, and they open wider. The rooftop folds up when the driver holds down a button on the dash, using 15 electric motors to convert for open-air driving in 20 seconds. in any convertible, frame strength is an important safety consideration. The frame of the is c has been reinforced by use of thicker rocker panel structure, additional steel in the a and b pillars, and a system of v-shaped braces across the underbody. To reduce impingement on trunk space, the is c body was enlarged by 2. 25 inches to help accommodate the top mechanism. interiorthe lexus is cabin is oriented around driving. The front seats blend luxury with performance. They are secure and supportive, but not overly firm, and 10-way adjustable. The seats are mounted on a fairly long seat track to provide 44 inches of front legroom for taller drivers, but at the expense of back-seat accommodations. rear-seat access in the sedan is reasonably easy. We found generous hip room, but not much legroom, in the back. The rear seat is rather upright, with two deeply dished seats at either side. The seating for a fifth passenger would be on the center hump. Although there is a headrest and seatbelt set for the middle seat, it's clearly designed for temporary use, or possibly a car seat. We view the is as a car comfortably built for driver and passenger, plus two more on occasion. the lexus is cabin uses sophisticated lighting and contemporary design to convey a sense of quality and luxury. The interior features intelligently designed displays and controls that are easy to see and use. A focused cockpit area conveys the sporting intentions of the car, while premium interior materials and attention to detail remain consistent to the lexus identity. Smartly integrated metallic or maple trim helps create an elegant environment. controls and gauges are designed to reduce visual clutter, including the bright, clear optitron gauges. The gauges are brightly lit, located front and center, dominated by a 160-mph speedometer and 8000-rpm tach. The multi-information display located within the speedometer integrates a trip computer that combines six different informational functions in one location, including outside temperature, driving range, average fuel consumption, average fuel consumption since refueling, current fuel consumption, and average speed. The display also includes an oil-maintenance reminder and system warnings. Additional features are added to the multi-information display depending on selected options. When an is model is equipped with dynamic radar cruise control, the display can show a car icon with the selected following distance. When equipped with intuitive park assist, the display can show a car icon with the location and distance of objects detected near the bumpers. the is c is different from the sedan in a number of ways. Like all hard-top convertibles, the is c roof intrudes on trunk space when folded. With the top up, there is almost 11 cubic feet of trunk space; with the top down, just 2. 3 cubic feet, assuming a standard spare tire. That's still enough for two golf bags, though the vinyl cargo cover may cause some consternation to the unschooled. To create more space, run-flat tires are offered as an option, which eliminates the need for a spare tire. given that the open-air driving experience can be marred by ambient noise, wind and exposure to heat or cold, special attention has been paid to top-down comfort. Wind noise has been kept to an absolute minimum, and turbulence in the passenger cabin has been reduced by careful study of the mirrors and interior design. Indeed, this makes driving around the neighborhood with the top down most pleasant. The is c instrument p. Climate Control✔ Cruise Control✔ Sport Package✔ Alloy Wheels
