.... a ton of miles on it, a 2007 should still be under warranty. Why not consider taking it to the dealer?

..... and not being successful, try to get Lexus Corporate involved. Sometimes they will send a top tech out for a particular issue that a dealer is having a problem with.

My 350 has higher wind noise than i would have expected, however i believe it's mostly due to the huge side mirrors. Many other cars have a smaller more streamlined design ..... however i love these large mirrors and would not trade them for a smaller, less functional, but "cool", mirror.

mine is definitely the sunroof, when i close the hade it disappears, its night and day. debating whether to complain again (3rd time) or just learn to deal with it.
my side mirros are quiet. i also like the size, since the visibility is very good.

Is this still the case? I was looking to get an IS soon - pref an IS 350 - and really would like to get a manual. You're saying that there are only really Automatics around? (I'm in Laurel, MD - Baltimore/Washington DC/Northern VA area)

No manual tranny for the IS350 and don't hold your breath for it either.

"louiswei" is correct ... no manual for the 350 .... 250 only.
I seem to recall one writeup on the 350 where the writer claimed he could knock a second off 0-60 by manually shifting the "tiptronic" 350 (as opposed to letting the tranny shift itself). I don't know about that as i have never bothered to compare.
Its plenty fast as it is .... i do a lot of city driving and am happy to be clutchless.

Thanks for getting back to me louiswei, and thanks for your feedback too kc567567. I'm not terribly familiar with the IS and have just started looking into it. Back in 2003, I bought a used Blue 2001IS 300 when I got my first job out of college and loved the car. But in early '04, someone rear ended me into the car in front of me and my car died on the spot. I just ended up buying an '04 Accord which has served me well, but I'd like to own an IS again. Let's see what I can find and for how much around the DC area. I definitely want to buy new. I'll look into specifics on how the IS 250 & 350 differ, but I'm leaning towards the IS350.
