Video: Lexus IS 250C

As we said yesterday, the new Lexus IS 250C is based on the IS sedan and features the same engine, a 2.5-litre V6 connected to a 6-speed automatic transmission and capable to deliver 205 hp. Yesterday we saw just some photos, but today we got lucky and received two videos, revealing the exterior and interior of the new coupe-cabriolet from Lexus.

The new car enters on a market segment where cars such as the Mercedes SLK or Bmw 3-Series Cabrio lead by far, but there are great chances to see this new vehicle near the two German cars due to the high quality of Lexus cars.

The photo quality wasn't good and the video seemed a little too gloomy for my liking. It doesn't look classy but rather cheap in my opinion. However seeing it in person may change my mind. I also hope they've changed those ridiculously uncomfortable seats in the IS. It seems the car is built for midgets.

Talk about a "Rolling Turd on Wheels", that is what Lexus' attempt at copying the sexy BMW 3 series turned into.. LMAO!!!

That has to be the ugliest "So Called" Premium convertible I have ever seen.

Once again, this only proves Lexus has no soul and is just another Toyota hand me down, think Toyota Solara..

What a piece of JUNK ............

But have you noticed the "stream of urine" effect created by the phallic windows and pee-stream cut line of the rear door? Look at the side view of any IS and it is hard to deny the image! The window create the It really is a sick joke on not just the owners of these cars, but all of America who have share the roads with them. They really should be rated NC-17. Toyota should be ashamed...

I am not responsible if you wet your pants laughing when you see it for the first time.

Im not a fan of any of these convertibles. The 3 coupe and IS sedan both look much nicer than their convertible counterparts... just my oppinion though

I wouldn't be caught dead in this car. I am just wondering. What are Lexus/Toyota designers drinking?
