Lexus introduced its new convertible in Paris, based on access to saloon range, Lexus IS. It has a folding hardtop, three-piece, which folds in 20 seconds (the fastest in its segment). Its four seats are reasonably spacious and has a trunk that can accommodate a bag of golf clubs with the top collected. Without the roof, cargo space is like others in this type of car: irregular and rather small.

Whether covered in the guide discovery that the IS 250C provide a level of security at best, she's already standard 6 airbags (driver side dual-chamber), a new Pre-Crash Safety system (PCS) for seat belts and assistance braking (optional on the Luxury version), side padding to absorb impacts for all occupants, and front seats with WIL technology to reduce injuries due to whiplash. The adaptive cruise control automatically maintains the distance to the car in front, while the Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) integrates ESP, ABS, EBD, traction control and stability control. Added to this are the intelligent adaptive front lighting system, the parking assist and tire pressure monitoring.

The budget of the IS 250C contains a new navigation system with a 40-gigabyte hard drive that contains the data of the entire European road network, new touch screen and an audio system with 8 speakers and a power of 246 watts. At the request system is available from 365 watt Premium Surround Sound with 12 speakers Mark Levinson, able not only to ensure a great sound, but also to tailor the equalization to compensate for the natural loss of bass when traveling in the open.
