In Japan, few people know that Lexus is putting a lot of luxury cars on the road. That's because Lexus, the luxury division of Toyota, doesn't produce its models for the Japanese market. In this segment, the Japanese prefer European cars. So Lexus concentrates on American and European driving enthusiasts. The IS 250C is a convertible that, thanks to its hard top, can be driven year round. Drive it! puts the sleek machine through its paces.
