Celebrating the milestone sale of more than 5000 IS 250's in the land of Down Under Lexus Australia will release a limited edition model dubbed “IS 250X”.

Due in showrooms in late July, the IS 250X will be available in only 260 examples.

Despite its promising name though, the IS 250X’s unique features are limited to a set of five-spoke, 18" alloy wheels, "X" badging and a one-off Vermilion (red) exterior colour (Metallic Silver and Onyx (black) will also be available, with all colours matched to black leather interior).

I wonder if Lexus has tried to copyright the letter "X" exclusively? There is too much "X" going on with the Le"X"us brand.

No it's not. No front lip spoiler, illuminated door sill scuff plates, sports tuned suspension, wood trim, no heated and perforated seats, and it has Mark Levinson Audio... therefore, it's not an X-Package.

What an inconsistent package set. Mark Lev/Nav but with no wood trim or illuminated scuffplates? At first it sounded like an X-Package but then I saw no wood and it has the Mark Lev. It has the wheels, but not lip spoiler.

Doesn't look special to me. Uglier rims and that's it?

All those against Lexus I think are jealous and biased. I think Lexus (like the one above; IS 250) have an overall rating higher than their American, German, French and other Japanese rivals of corresponding series(es) and its sales price is worth the gadgetry, technology and finesse / finetuned precision enginnering overall. Though it could have been better if Lexus could churn out an AWD and diesel-hybrid in all its level series(es).
