2007 Lexus IS250 review from North America
"My 1984 Supra was a more impressive car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
I am having great difficulty achieving a graceful launch from a stand-still. The engine is reluctant to respond to the accelerator pedal without a load. I must "ride" the clutch ever so slightly in order to get an adequate response from the engine before fully engaging the clutch, and by that time an automatic would have left me in the dust! What fun is that?
Can anybody say 'frustrating'?
