About a full second slower in the 1/4 mile than the IS350... they gave it 300 hp but to be able to do it they had to put in a heavy AWD system that wouldn't have been needed if Acura made cars that drove the correct pair of wheels in the first place.

Shared throne, perhaps, but in repeated tests, stock for stock, it's the IS350 that has the edge, not the 335.

My IS 350 does not have NAV. I special ordered and it was easily worth the wait. The 350 is a dream.

They might only, normally, come to that area with nav... obviously Lexus makes it without elsewhere though (or via special order).

When I was looking to buy my is350, the ratio of navi to non navi is350's was like 8 out of 10 had nav. Most of the non navs were silver or black though. Mine was 70 miles away, but i got it

I will be getting IS250 without Navi next week. Too bad that one offer for 09 IS350 with Navi didn't work out well.
I guess i will try to put some f-sports equipments. any advice?

teddyh2o, quick question...are you the kind of person that enjoys power? or just like a car for the looks and comfort? If you desire some performance, I would keep looking for a is350. Where in california are you?

Just my two pennies but no f sport parts will ever make a 250 be like a 350. As goes for the 350 and the F, not hating on either car.

I live in Santa Monica and i called all the dealers around including oxnard and valencia. I know that with all the parts with IS250, it won't be fast as IS350 but at least i can enjoy just little bit of power. I am not really a person who enjoys all the horsepower that i can have.

Test drive em both before you make the final decision. Do the 350 first then the 250.

There's only 2 F-sport parts that add any power at all, and they add, together, a whopping 10-12 hp, total.. for just a bit under $2000.

or for around $3500 you can add 102 hp by getting a 350 :P
