I love the two cars but am afraid of fuel economy of these cars and confused on which one to go for as i don't know the one that retain more fuel or rather the one that is preferable. I really don't know which one to go for cos am considering my pocket in buying fuel. I don't need the F sport model. Please i need an honest answer on which one to go for 🙏🙏

  • Scotty tells the truth and simply speaks his mind for which you are free to like him or hate him. I recently returned from a 9 day trip to Dubai. 99.9 percent of the taxis and Uber cars in dubai are camrys and mid sized Lexuses. The I ones I utilised had mileage between 500,000-700,000 km. To me, they all seemed to be running perfectly fine which I found to be pretty amazing. I have no idea how these things can last so long in stop and go traffic that is Dubai. I guess Toyota and Lexus have some seriously talented engineers who take their work extremely seriously.

  • Scotty is right! I bought a mint IS 250 from CarMax. This is a dream car for me. A sporty Lexus. It's not a powerful engine, but it's plenty fast. If you wind it up it'll go fast. My main reasons for buying this car is that I loved its looks, I love the comfort and luxury, and it's extremely reliable. The paint on my car looks brand new (it's a metallic midnight blue, but it's so dark it looks black) and surprisingly enough the windshield doesn't have one single chip in it. You can also take these cars to a Toyota dealership and they can work on it far cheaper than a Lexus dealer. This gets nearly 30 miles to the gallon. I'm in love with this car!

    • @@pietrostrassmann1585 I dog the hell out of this car and the only promblem I’m getting is maybe the battery is low cause I’ve noticed low voltage when running it on acc for 2 minutes minimum it’ll almost shut off. Aslong as vtt hoses go, that happened to me with my old Lexus SC300. That car was a gem, small fix and I was back in the road. Might be a Lexus thing so upgrading it wouldn’t hurt.

    • @@goatpier7570 how do you know if the voltage is running low? I picked up a 2016 IS300 a month ago. No issues so far!

  • Hey Scotty, love my 2011 Lexus IS 250. Solid car never have any issues until now, no engine or transmission issues, it’s the front right side of the car, if I’m in reverse backing up out of driveway roll on a small bump a crunching sound is coming from the front end somewhere. The same thing happens in drive also if im pulling into my driveway I hear it, also if I turn my wheel sometimes I hear it. When I come to a stop , it almost sounds like I’m hearing my breaks making the sound, because the sound pauses, as if it followed the timing of the anti lock break compressions, the break noise or the noise the breaks are making isn’t the breaks both rotor and breaks have been changed. I know sound resonates on the metal in the front so it’s hard to determine where the noises coming from. I almost positive the right strut is bad, and the strut mount could be making noise. Also during dry sunny weather it’s the sound is worse, during could humid weather you may not ever hear it. Or one day I sprayed lubricant, over all the front end parts the noise stopped for awhile, but started agin a week later. I should have sprayed one part at a time to isolate the part lol. It has 110,000 miles on it. And still performing strong. Any suggestions is to what is causing this crunching noise?
