Living in philly and south jersey, I rarely see anyone drive a IS 350 f sport around here and even if i do see someone drive a F sport 350 they're older adults. For the two years i have driven the is350 i have only seen one young guy drive one who pulled next to me in a stop light and we gave each other the approval head nod. Its good in a way since i feel like i own a super car since no one else drives one on the road.

Its just a lot off people can't justified the need to spend 5k more on the exact same car as the is250/200t, but with a bigger engine.

I'm 23 and a lot off people be thinking I have a 250 or 200t lmao. Naww bruh.. 350 all the way. But it still need...MOAAARR POWAAAH

The other engine choices really don't do the chassis any justice. Too weak to make the car come alive. I've had 200t and 250 loaners and I can't help but feel the car is neutered every time I drive those.

Haha, yea. I'm probably the only one in my town with a 350. I see a lot of 250. They all be like, "Ima pass this dudebro" and I'm like "nope"

Even more rare to see is my other car, Boxster s 981 8-) See a ton of cayennes.

When I make enough money, a Porsche will be my next car ! Those things are a beauty. Zero mods & will still break necks 8)

Where i lived people don't care about car, if i see ill see a 250/300/200T, people that drives new model Lexus BMW Mercedes Audi are the one that makes enough income, but most of them still don't care about Power, so i rarely see, Me i like POwer Performance car since 90s never driven 4cyl or cheap **** Hyundai

Mrg02d

Make sure you go used, cpo, as they are much more affordable than new. Did the same on my is350.

As for power, my first car that I bought for myself was a Chevy Cruze. Man was the is350 a night and day experience! After that, it was power for me, then on out.

The Boxster is a lot faster than the is350, but not as night and day. The is350 is oh so much smoother though! It's my DD. Boxster is for fun weekends and anything aside from work.

I'm in North Jersey and I have a 2016 IS300 with a IS350 computer

I'm from Toronto.
There's tons of Lexus cars here, but not many 350s. The 350 was my one and only choice for a car 2 years ago.

In the bay area, i noticed a lot of people bought white is350 f sport for 2014 model year. Since then there seem to be less 350 in 2015, and lesser white color in 2016.

I believe bay area has the most 350 f sport or maybe the most IS around in general. I felt special in 2013 but now it's dime a dozen.

I'm in Central NJ. About an hour and half from NYC and in an area where lots of people work and commute to the city. However my area is also very busy with local business and traffic. I also live near the shore and near some very rich area's (Rumson, NJ)

I see at least 1 or 2 F-Sport IS a day. However sometimes 250 sometimes 350. It's not easy to tell the difference and I've actually removed my IS350 badge as I like the look with nothing but the Lexus logo. I do see a dark gray IS350 f-sport most mornings on my way in with his license plate up in the dash the same way I have mine.

Off-topic, but... If you get it serviced and the dealer doesn't notice, let me know. Thinking of doing the upgrade myself.

How's the reliability with Porsche? I'm kind of skeptical buying a used performance car. You never know how to previous owner had treated it =\

I bought my IS350 new, wasn't really thinking of CPO at the time =\
