I am actually really happy with my 08 IS350. Had it from day one and it is a super fun car. I think my only realistic upgrade woulf be a M3 right now. With a 2 and 4 year old that is not going to happen any time soon though. New cars seem so expensive now comapred to when I bought mine.

see my sig, many would not make the same move as me. You are the end user and it is really up to you and what you NEED.

I already purchased a car after the IS350... a S2000. I am looking to purchase a Porsche 911 turbo or GT3 within the coming year.

Is300 simplify things. If not then an is-f. People don't expect much if your driving an older car

My 250 is going strong, so no plans to replace - just augment. Aston V8V or Jag F-type top my list. I need to settle a couple of things/ have some luck and maybe the list could expand a bit.

i have 40k more miles in 2 more years before my CPO warranty expires, and that's when i'll be looking for my next ride. with a kid my logical choice at that time would be a face lifted GS350 in 2015.

I had a 2008 is350 and had to sell it due to a bad hand I was dealt about three years ago. I was going to get the 2014 IS350 until it came out and I was not really happy with the new look. Way to aggressive for my taste so I decided to get a Audi A5 with a 6 SPD manual. So happy with my decision.

Nice choice! I would have said any audi after the isx50 is a great choice. Or any sport model bmw too.
