Beginning with the core concept of providing a funto-drive experience, instead of theoretical concepts and long meetings, they took a hands-on approach to sports driving pleasure, and the technology and components required to bring it vividly to life. Time after time, they built and tested their ideas with actual prototypes, comparing and analysing driving experiences to establish performance benchmarks and a shared expression of driving fun, to continually hone every facet HOME BOOK A TEST DRIVE of performance. This hands-on approach extended to the testing and adoption of advanced production technologies, to enable its realisation. Naturally, the proof of this unique approach to breakthrough performance is in the driving experience. To test it, slip behind the wheel, engage your senses, depress the accelerator and just drive. The moment you and the IS move as one, with responsive and agile handling and powerful thrilling performance, you will truly understand the IS’s fun-to-drive spirit and desire to just keep on driving, in your body and soul.

Every Lexus is based on an uncompromising approach to creating premium automobiles. Inspired by our ‘Yet’ philosophy, we seek innovation in every facet of engineering through a sophisticated fusion of seemingly incompatible ideas such as ‘high performance yet high fuel efficiency’. In addition, unique Lexus styling is born of our L-finesse design language, a fine balance of ‘Leading-edge’ and ‘finesse’, so that every Lexus is not only captivating and luxurious, but also highly refined. Finally, every new Lexus model is also measured against a set of internal standards covering design, performance, specifications and equipment, to confirm it is distinctive and worthy of the Lexus emblem. 62 TA K U M I This pursuit of perfection is evident at every stage of the manufacturing process. Every Lexus vehicle is created with a masterful skill and attention to detail inspired by both traditional artisanship and state-of-the-art engineering. For example, at the Tahara plant in Japan, precision components made using leading-edge digital technology are assembled and finished by master craftsmen called Takumi, whose technical expertise and sure senses are honed by decades of rigorous experience. 63 LOCATE A DEALER HOME BOOK A TEST DRIVE EXTERIOR & INTERIOR COLOURS Captivating and sophisticated, the evocative exterior colours and stylish colour and trim combinations in the cabin radiate strength and dynamism, reinforcing the IS’s spor ty luxur y appeal.

So too, the silver metallic finish of the electrostatic air conditioning switch instils added style. The opulent interior detail on the seating and door panels comes in a selection of four treatments in Luxury and Sports Luxury models. F Sport interiors are energised by a choice of two interior design treatments. If you’re daring, the Dark Rose colour treatment features a deep red hue for a striking interior. Or maybe you’d prefer your F Sport in Black. In each scenario, F Sport models have exclusive Naguri-style Aluminium mouldings. These genuine metal structures have been etched to achieve a three-dimensional effect which complements the high performance attitude of the F Sport, while aluminium pedals and scuff plates add highlights to the high-tech look. The Noble Brown interior is distinctively refined. Then there’s the smooth elegance of the Chateau interior. The latest addition to the interior palette is the dangerously desirable look of Nuance Black. For the purists, there’s also classic Black. Each hue is offset by a choice of mouldings which highlight the clean lines of the interior design. The sleek lustre of Mercury Mist adds a sense of definition and dynamism to Luxury models, while Sports Luxury models offer the sophistication of Laser Cut ornamentation. Mercury Mist (Luxury models only) So, whatever attitude your preferred Lexus IS model displays on the outside, it’s complemented by an equally distinctive personality on the inside.

How does Lexus Ownership Solutions work? • You choose the deposit that best fits your needs. • You choose your term.++ • You decide on the estimated kilometres you think the vehicle will have travelled at the end of the term (the End Odometer). The End Odometer will also include any kilometres already on the vehicle. • Lexus Financial Services (LFS) then determines the GFV of your vehicle and calculates your monthly repayments with a final payment equal to the GFV. The GFV is the minimum value of your Lexus at the end of your finance contract. So, if you return your Lexus at the end of the term, LFS will pay you the GFV which will be put against the final payment (subject to fair wear and tear conditions and agreed kilometres being met). The end of the term? Simply replace, retain or return. At the end of your term you can choose to: • Replace or sell your Lexus using the trade-in value or sale price to pay the remaining balance of your account. • Retain your Lexus and simply pay the remaining balance of your account (including final payment). • Alternatively, return your Lexus and, subject to fair wear and tear conditions and the agreed kilometres being met, we’ll put the GFV towards the final payment on your account. Choosing your deposit – what is best for you? With the flexibility of Lexus Ownership Solutions, you can choose the deposit that best fits your current needs. • I f, for example, you have funds tied up in other investments, you can choose to finance your new Lexus with a zero deposit.†† • Alternatively, by using a larger deposit, you can lower your monthly repayments. • B etter still, compared to other finance options over a similar term, Lexus Ownership Solutions can provide lower monthly repayments.+++ Want more certainty? With Lexus Ownership Solutions, you’ve got the reassurance that at the end of the term (subject to fair wear and tear and agreed kilometres being met) you’ll never owe more than your vehicle’s worth to LFS. In other words, you don’t have to worry about what your vehicle will be worth in the future because you know its minimum value from the outset.+ What happens in the case of the unexpected? If your vehicle incurs damage and does not meet the Fair Wear and Tear guidelines, LFS will give you the opportunity to have your vehicle repaired. Otherwise, LFS can organise the repairs and deduct the cost from your GFV. This adjusted GFV will then be the price that LFS will offer you if you return the vehicle at the end of your term. Of course, if you retain the vehicle, the condition doesn’t matter, however, if you replace it or sell it privately, the condition will obviously impact your sale price. So what does your accountant think? Naturally, we think Lexus Ownership Solutions is an excellent, innovative way to put you in control of buying a new Lexus. That said, we suggest you seek independent advice to ensure Lexus Ownership Solutions is right for you. Wouldn’t it be great if Lexus Ownership Solutions was just the beginning? Lexus’ innovations and commitment to customer service extend well beyond Lexus Ownership Solutions. Once you purchase a new Lexus, you’ll become a member of the Lexus Encore Privileges Programme and enjoy a host of exclusive benefits.† For further details, simply visit your nearest Lexus dealer or see lexus.com.au/services/benefits/ FIND OUT MORE T he Guaranteed Future Value (GFV) is the minimum value of your new or approved demonstrator Lexus at the end of your finance contract, as determined by Lexus Financial Services (LFS).
