So I decided for the fun of it to take a day off work and drive 4 hours to go check out the 350. I can tell you what, I did not notice it any faster than my 250, not sure if its the AWD thing or not, I <3 my SGM compared to the SP, so in the end I am just keeping my 250 lol, though I wasted a day for a car that did not wow me. I guess if they had a 2011 IS350 in SGM I might have done it but all in all I learned a little bit by the trip. BTW the Nebula Gray is not a great color at all, SGM is a much better looking color.

SGM > Nebula Grey. But IS350>faster>IS250 AWD or NOT. Glad you realized it wasn't worth it because when the new scion FRS comes out youll be considering it.

Like Calvin said this is a routine phonecall. Dont let them make you believe that they need YOUR car.
I dont agree that all the relevant information has been laid out,
1. Are you leasing? finance?
2. What are the current terms? months, interest, etc....
3. Sale price of said IS350
If you're financing, find out what they are doing to get your payments to be $140 more.
Dealerships can work their "magic" to make it seem good to you but in the back end it could turn up to be a horrible scenario.
HONESTLY, unless your usually speeding up and down the highway the extra 100HP is not worth the $140, personally I drive an IS350 and apart from the occasional rush of wanting to step on it, I never use the extra power.
