I recently bought an is250 2009 and went for an additional 2years warranty Even though there was still about 3 yrs manufacturer warranty on it. For me it was peace of mind I guess. Regardless of whether you're going to keep it long term or not, if it's something you can afford why not? If you keep it long term you'll at least know there's some sort of protection there for you. If you decide to sell it after a few years you will potentially be able to get a better price which would pay off the extended warranty anyway. I'm sure other members have differing opinions but that was my reasoning for getting it.

Thanks ilv4001s. Any recommendations on good places to get these parts installed?

Hey guys, I've searched on the forum and couldn't really find a definitive answer to my question. I'm looking to order the fsport springs,absorbers and sway bars from the US. I got a quote from a Lexus dealer that they'll charge me 650 to install the springs and absorbers and 300 to install the sway bars. I'm not too sure what's the market rate but to me this seems a little on the steep side. I understand that it's Lexus and they'll definitely charge more, but are these prices going too far? Alternatively, could anyone recommend a decent place to get them installed? Looking for advice from more experienced members. Btw, I'm located in Sydney. Thanks in advance and all help is appreciated.

Those are some nice shots! Can't wait to get my IS250 and join you guys at the next meet!

I'm looking forward to that! Hope you guys manage to find the time.

Lex5is, Lemme know if you ever post a vid or sound clip online. Would love to have an idea on how it sounds to before I actually decide to put it on. But judging from all your posts on this forum and how much time you've spent on your is250, I'm inclined to take your word for it! Thanks.

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and soon to get an is250. I know this was quite an old post but was wondering if anyone on the forums have or are using the 5zigen fireball mega exhaust? Reason I'm asking is because I'm looking to get this installed as part of the whole purchase. I'm buying used from a Lexus dealer and they're gonna install it for me. Initially was going to go for the fsport exhaust but apparently the dealership doesn't have it? (not sure if this is true) I've tried searching online for some vids or clips on how it sounds on an is250 but couldn't find anything relevant. I've searched the forum as well and this seemed to be the only relevant thread. Has anyone heard the fireball mega on an is250 before? Does it sound decent? Or is the guy at the dealership just trying to offload an unwanted 5zigen exhaust? Hope someone on this forum is able to help me and would appreciate anyone's comments. Looking forward to joining the is250 club soon!!
