Obviously i don't think this was necessarily the intent for Lexi but it is what it is.
I wouldn't consider $5-6000 price difference between the 250 and 350 to be small. The difference is probably even bigger outside of CA since it seems like dealers not in big cities offer much smaller discounts on the 350 vs a 250. That's besides the point of this thread though since the two cars look exactly the same except for the badging

Around $50 bucks a month if leasing. Having driven both cars, if i couldn't afford that extra $50 id rather lease a CT (not joking). It is not my intention to **** off 250 owners but OP deserves truthful opinions before purchasing.

IMO White is the best color. Every car I have ever owned has been white, or may have been another color but was painted white.

White hides all scratches and swirls really well and add some Carbon Fiber and its gameover..

i think it's closer to $100 per month difference for leases. ~$350 for a 250 F and ~$450 for a 350 F

OP, as others have said... who the eff cares what the color of your car is or what it looks like. As long as you like it then who else cares?
