Any regrets getting IS 250 instead of IS 350 or vice versa?

Brakes. U can tell by our brakes. BTW, it was a joke. READ - rush hour traffic. u guys are too serious (or too biased) . who cares reallly. Ur happy with your ride, Im happy for you. Im happy with my ride, be happy for me. After all we're all IS owners and should be proud and happy owners. My 2 cents.

Not trying to defend or argue but please read post completely before flaming. RUSH HOUR COMMUTE= NOT MOVING=/or slow moving SIDE BY SIDE =/OR BUMPER TO BUMPER. Some ppl read and try to digest the message but some just react. Question asked and answered.

I regret that the IS350 is just a RWD IS250 with a bigger engine. Lexus didn't put any effort in making the IS350 a better overall sports sedan. They could've at least included a better suspension standard to go with the extra power. I also needed AWD and the IS350 didn't offer it. At least the Lexus put some effort into the IS-F.

overall, im extremely grateful to be driving an awd is250. being 20 years old, i feel spoiled enough. its worth taking out a chunk of my paycheck every month to enjoy driving around (rents helped with down payment).
my morning commute to work often involves heavy traffic, so power is not an issue. during the evening i tend to speed, but i dont need the added 100hp because it would only tempt me to go even faster than i do.
awd is also a plus in the rainy northwest. unfortunately now people are gonna expect me to drive up to the passes more often, but ill let em know there isnt enough cabin space for the skis/boards
