[Coless]

usually all cars... vw was as bad... interior roof sheets dropping like old cars lol vios and altis for the dash are mostly hard plastic no adhesive...

actually all german cars faced interior roof lining came off issue..they using sealant more for cold climate, not for our perpetually hot country.

Engine got problem though, just like mark X due to direct injection.

 

[m@maboi]

a good care overall... but the back seat is a bit cramped.

quiet v6 engine... I used to own for 2 years, no regret....

I'm also considering IS250 2006 10 years COE renewal.
Low Dep for such specification.

Road tax wise kinda high.

Concern about the roof, dashboard, door panel replacement cost.
Any idea where to get these cost and labour to replace these parts.
These cost will add on to ownership cost eventually.

saw SgCarMart alot of 2006 IS250.
Wonder how is the reliability of the rides.

Avg dep : 9k/yr

What do you think is a good reasonable price for IS250 COE Renewal?

Saw IS250 on sales for below 80k for 10 years(extend COE).

Also saw Mercs too, there are C and E class for around the same pricing too. Will Mercs be a better deal? Considering that Mercs are rather durable with reasonable maintenance as compared to BMW or Audi.

Lesser road tax for Mercs too, 1.8 litres as compared to 2.5 litres. Fyi road tax increases by 50% from year 5 to 10 too so it's quite a difference for IS250.

Btw is the maintenance for Merc significantly higher than Lexus?

 

[SuperClubby]

just curious

how come can have this sticky issue

is it the material used that causes this or the type of glue

used that gave this problem

and why only Lexus or Camry which is the top end

model of Toyota model that have this problem

Legacy also this problem

Dashboard and panel just rewrap can do.

What happened to your vw?

 

[s4vtec]

Engine fault that cannot be solved. Ridiculous wear and tear rates. Incompetent mechanics

Which model and did you mod the car?

 

[acewind]

Looking to purchase a either 07 is250 or 07 mark x. Hmm actually is there any difference between this 2 momodel? Advisable to extend coe for 5 years? Or should i get a 06 already extended 5year coe car? Any difference?
