Used 2009 Lexus IS for Sale near San Jose, CA

Reliable if taken care of . Tech is old and parts are relatively expensive

This car is excellent as a daily driver, reliable and quick. It has the looks and interior styling of a luxury car but with a sports-car twist. Once you're inside you are practically in your own world, no noise except for the radio. The only downside is if you're looking for a sports car, this is not it. Lexus did well with the styling and perhaps the IS350 would suffice, but 204hp is simply not enough for a sports car. Other than that, very nice car that makes daily commutes slightly more fun.

Great if you're single, there isn't much room in the back but its super comfy. Sat. nav is also easy to use and intuitive. All the technology in this car is pretty useful and I find myself actually using it rather than just knowing you have it. Comes almost fully loaded out of the box so it basically is the best bang for your buck entry luxury sedan.

The navigation display seems outdated to me--had a 2008 Mercedes C300 before this and liked the navigation display (and the entire system) better. Sometimes the navigation self corrects to a ridiculous, out-of-the-way route, when my phone (correctly) tells me I can just drive straight and get there. Way more power than the benz, though--much more fun to drive.

I love this car, it truly is the favourite from any car i have owned. The only down side is restraint...ie, I have to use restraint every time I drive anywhere coz I would love to put my foot down and really see how fast it goes!
