It's actually a navy blue (sapphire I think it's called) this pic shows it a little better

Hi

Sure here are a couple I have more but not sure how many I am allowed to post :)

Thank you for your reply. Lexus said for peace of mind to get the warranty which of course does weigh favour of getting it but it is quite a bit to outlay which is why I hoped someone had some experience with it.

Hi everyone

Please excuse me if I am posting in the wrong area. I have looked for info on this topic but but have not found anything as yet. Please feel free to point me to any established topic I may have missed.

I am picking up my 2008 Lexus IS250 tomorrow. It is not at a Lexus dealership but we have had Melbourne City Lexus give it a comprehensive check. They are very happy with the condition of the car they only mentioned slightly low oil level which could be nothing or apparently point to a piston ring issue that the cars are known for. There is no other sign of any issue so he said if could be a matter of the last service (not done at a Lexus dealership) not topping up the oil or not using premium oil.

However I do note that the issue if it arises is an expensive one to get fixed.

I am tossing up whether it is worth purchasing Allianz assured extended warranty which appears to have a good reputation although it is expensive at 2.2k for three years.

The car has 80k on it and Lexus did say they would have expected the issue to have arisen by now however you know.

I guess it is a gamble either way but just wanting feedback on the warranty if anyone has it or if anyone has had any experience with this issue.

Many Thanks
