If you want a fun car to drive, DO NOT buy this car!

Pros: Very pretty car. The luxury appointments are well done.
Cons: Bad visibility from within and sport shifter is disappointing.

2006 Lexus IS 250 AWD 5 cylinder automatic. Very stylish. Nice color choices. I bought a Red Matador model. It is build for a short person. I am 5' 8" and my head is almost touching the roof. Extremely bad visibility from within. With the seat back so that I fit, the front column is blocks your a lot of your front view. All most all the views sideways have very bad blind spots. This car is very difficult to drive in traffic because with all the blind spots changing lanes is a guess. The sport shifter was a huge disappointment. I have driven manual transmissions for over 30 years. The sport shifter is not like a manual transmission. It is like going through the gears of a regular automatic transmission. Bottom line, if you want a car that is fun to drive, DO NOT buy this one. This is just a pretend performance auto. My six year old Honda Accord with a manual transmission is more fun to drive. After five days I'm trying to sell the IS 250 because it is such a disappointment to drive.
