About a month a ago my lexus is350 was part of a hit and run and the car is now totaled, ive been in search of the same car white w. navigation, park assist backup camera but have had no luck, so in real need of a car ive have been looking at g37x sedan white or black, Just want to know what you guys think, going from an is350 to a g37x sedan, g37 is awd, bigger interior and 7spd auto, where as the is350 has better mpg 1-2, weighs less, better resale value
OP the best suggestion I can give you is drive the car. Some people enjoy the G and others don't. Best way to tell you'll like it is to test drive and see if you can picture yourself driving it etc. Personally I've driven them, and while the interior appointments are nice, I cannot stand the VQ37 engine. Its coarse sounding and unrefined. I myself prefer the VQ35.

Have you looked at the car auctions? They are way cheaper, and have a much broader selection.
i bought my 07 is350 in white/blk with navi for $27..took me 3 months to find it but its only has 30k miles on it and CPO..dealer knew white was the most sought after so they didn't budge on the price

I'm looking form the same exact thing but I'd really love to have black interior on an aluminum trim, SUPER rare on a 350.

i live in NYC and i honestly don't ever think I have seen a 350, its ridiculous!!

350s are rare. I have one and someone on my street has one. Other than that, I rarely see one on the street.

Almost all IS near Boston are AWD, since 350 only got AWD last year, it would explain why we see so few of them around.
