Thinking of buying the Lexus IS?
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the Lexus IS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page sets out the Lexus IS for buyers, in plain words.
What to check on the IS
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
The numbers in plain words
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Good uses for the IS
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
What to expect from the IS
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.
Try before you buy
If the IS is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Choosing the right one
The years table on this page shows where the IS changed. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
The cost of driving it
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Lexus IS from us first.
Find me this car
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Lexus IS for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Lexus IS
Does CarmaCars sell the Lexus IS?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Lexus IS before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
