Seems totally irrealistic; and in the meantime, it's so smart.
@@LaurentVanderdonck Facts.
I mean think about it tho. How else do you convey to driving enthusiast rather than posting through a car enthusiast channel? If people are going to buy this car. This is how you’d promote it. Cheaper and a more direct market.

I love how they are LITERALLY revealing cars for the first time, yet are still sponsored by LORDS MOBILE
I know right? I was expecting something a bit more professional but still cool nonetheless.
Their other sponsor is ball shavers

Debuting this car and adding the shitty mobile app is such bad taste. Really reflects poorly on the car, like it's not special enough for its own video

@@TJ-kh2zc Idek I don’t think he knows Lexus IS a luxury brand😭😭💀
@@JosiahAmankwah bruh, I know what Lexus IS. The only thing I’m saying is most “enthusiasts” don’t have the economic backing to buy cars like that. Whatever happened to the 35 K and below ? The Z, Sti, Evo (R.I.P), mazdaspeed ( another R.I.P) and the list keeps going ... I guess you get the point. So, I don’t hate the car, neither the brand. I just see that more and more car manufacturers want to slap a big mark up price and they say “it’s for the enthusiast”.
@@T1miguel1T when has Lexus ever made vehicles for 35k. Lexus has always been a 40k and up company.... Enthusiasts I swear complain all the time just to be broke. It makes no sense. Companies bend there back out for them just for enthusiasts not to support. This is exactly why Toyota and many others don’t make sports cars for them anymore. If you only have 35k get a 86/Brz and or Miata and Type R. And call it a day lol

Plus, if you're a buyer of somewhere outside capital region, you'll get a free 5 star hotel, business class plane ticket and vip limousine to deliver you to their main gallery.

True
*cough* *cough* Mitsubishi *cough*
@@brg9759 As nolan said, this car was really cheap to engineer because it was made out of pre-existing parts. But yes, the absolute majority of people see cars as transportation devices and nothing more, so they don't buy anything like this. Also, what a lot of car people don't understand is that because of the rise of self-driving vehicles, this hobby is very close to dying, or at least very close to changing completely. A very small amount of people will modify cars once you can't drive them on regular roads (we will some day transition completely to self driving cars), and you can't modify a car which is driven completely by a computer. And car manufacturers know it, so they don't really try to invest in this market.
So B2B has become more of a science garage and this episode is a real B2B on wheel house

@@STR1XDLB I wasn't under the impression that anyone really gave a fuck. What a grammar nazi.....
@Nicklaus White What do you mean?
@Nicklaus White Bro mind your own business and keep hating somewhere else. I just told the guy he doesn't need to put quotes without being toxic like you. Wtf is your problem.And I still don't get what s wrong with my name it s spelled in my language and I can have whatever the fuck name I want.
@Nicklaus White Ah you're American. Now it makes sense. Get a life! You guys are the last people to be correcting grammar. So don't come here trying to act smart. We all know how ignorant you guys actually are.

I came back to this video, to tell you that I bought the Launch Edition, BECAUSE of this video. Well done.
Congrats man! I just a bought a blue mica IS500. I love this car.
“Who’s this car for?”
It’s for me! I want one.
'Normal sedan' that looks like the LFA's little brother with a giant and mean child eater looking grill? that thing screams speed
Honestly all sedans look sporty now. Look at the Camry TRD, it is not nearly as fast as this and it has got a freaking big spoiler on it. Tbh every Lexus car looks like this besides the badging and the trim color.
I'm so proud Dount! You guys have come a long way. Love this team, and can't wait to see all the success you guys bring in the future
thanks for supporting us!
my mans nolan getting skinnier every video. proud of that man🥳🥳
What i don't think is a good idea is putting the sponsor ad at the start of such a special video
“James shot like 4 of them” thursday is the deadline donut

I absolutely CANNOT wait for this things aftermarket scene
Wont be much because they wont be making very many of them
Newer Lexus aftermarket game is still pretty limited. Coming from Honda to Lexus I was pretty surprised
@@1ManApocalypse- No surprise, most people that buy Lexus are not looking to tune them it seems. Its just the type of fan base they have (older I think) I think the IS cars look good but I never come across one wanting to race
Dude I own a GSF - and there is ZERO aftermarket for F cars. The only stuff is super high end from Japan. $6k for a cat back. $12k full exhaust. $600-800 for an intake. Lol. Body kits that aren’t carbon are $4-5k. Engine stuff is limited to RR Racing.
@@theylive2749 wow those prices are crazy. The IS q300 catback i just got was 1200. My Honda was like 500 lol. I knew F models were$$$ but damn dude
I personally am BIG into luxury sleepers. So I'd definitely be interested in an IS 500, if I could afford it.
“I’m sold! I’m sold! What else do you want?”
Drive it...
