Replying to: rtad (Apr 30, 2005 1:59 pm) Not going to hurt anything. Some cars built in the 60-70s had seals that didn't like synthetic oil. Not to worry with your IS300 this isn't an issue.

#2946 of 3003 IS re-design by toydriver May 14, 2005 (5:32 pm)
When will the IS be redesigned?? When is the 5yr model run complete? Currently own '03ES.   Will the new IS have AWD option?? What other drive train updates do people anticipate??   Sorry for asking questions that have probably been asked many times over, but didn't see this recently discussed ??

Replying to: toydriver (May 14, 2005 5:32 pm) Believe me, nothing has been asked many times over on this board, at least in the last couple of years. It may not be dead, but it certainly is dormant.   I'm waiting for the IS that doesn't look like something that a SoCal "person" went wild with. The drivetrain & suspension are worthy. Perhaps the rest of the car will offer other options in the future. I gravitate toward RWD cars w/ a manual & lux features.   Time will tell.

Replying to: toydriver (May 14, 2005 5:32 pm) Check out the "the next IS" message board.   A new IS is coming in late summer/early fall of this year. but no wagon version of the IS is coming. Replies to this message: sorter (May 16, 2005 5:11 pm)

That won't be a real sport wagon. They're talking some kind of idiot crossover, a la a baby RX.   Blecch.

Been out of action for a while. Divorce finalized April 19th.   kyfdx... My now ex-wife loves her '04 bright red SportCross. So do I and the kids. Been a great car. Is interesting to see so few of them, on road or at dealers.   cellshortnow & others... In midwest Lexus dealers seem to be selling '05 ISs for about 6-7,000 off MSRP. Seeing ads for cars with $34,000 MSRPs being offered for $27-28,000. Great time to buy a great car.   Hate to admit it but I'm not enthused about the new IS. I just can't get excited about a V6. I plan on keeping my '04 IS300 5-speed manual with LSD till 100,000 miles, at least. Glad I bough the extended warranty thru Lexus at time of purchase.   Still in love with my IS. Now have about 28,000 miles. Never been in shop for anything but snow tires and routine maintenance (always synthetic oil). Every time I walk up to her I think how good she looks. Love the size and shape.   How much are dealers charging for 30,000 mile service? Replies to this message: cdnpinhead (May 21, 2005 4:06 pm) kamransemail (Jul 20, 2005 6:45 am)

good to see you're back. I'm sorry you had to split up with your wife. Even though the next IS won't be the same, we'd all love to hear your impressions if you can get your hands on one.
