The all-new third generation Lexus IS 350 F-Sport impresses with a more dynamic driving experience and eight-speed transmission.
Lexus has always been my favorite luxury car brand, so it is no surprise that I fell in love with the new Lexus IS 350 F-Sport. You feel like you are one with this car, the seat molding perfectly to your body with seamless steering and acceleration.
The IS 350 F SPORT features four drive modes: ECO, NORMAL, SPORT S, and SPORT S+. These drive modes are tailored to meet the driver’s preferred combination of economy, comfort, performance and handling characteristics. The SPORT S+ mode is definitely fun, but I liked that I had the option to choose the more sensible ECO mode to save a little gas. I do a lot of in-city driving, running around to different meetings and events around town. So having the option to switch to a mode that wouldn’t guzzle gas was nice.
The car looks as beautiful as it drives, but a more functional update was an increase of the wheelbase by nearly three-inches for more rear legroom and cargo room.
The IS 350 F-Sport starts at $43,435.
