Coming from a CT (and RXh), I'd have bought it instead of the 250 if it was available here. Gas bill would have been almost 175-200$ cheaper per month, but I do love the V6's engine note and smooth power delivery!

I have never been a fan of hybrids. I figured I would go with either gasoline or electric i.e. Tesla. But Tesla's have been catching fire lately, so I ended up getting a IS350.

It's equal to the 250.

I was hoping there might be some news at the Detroit show.

Negative. Unless gas prices go way up, I would rather drive a fuel effiicient car. You may need to drive over 5 years to make up the difference in fuel costs over the cost of the hybrid version.
