I see so many IS in general. Is350 is fairly common in OC, but IS250 is extremely common.

Definitely a lot more 250's out there then 350's, Don't see many 350's here in SoCal either, almost always a 250 or IS-F. Even rarer is spotting a AWD 2IS around SoCal. I think i've only seen 2 ever here.

In the neighborhood where I leave, besides mine, I've seen 3 more IS350s. Here in the northwest, there are tons of AWD IS250s compared to IS350s.

That's my case, the MPG was a big plus for me.

Again, 5 IS250s today...not a single IS350 besides mine.

There are a few 2IS converts rooming around, one is a 350 I know for sure.

I see way more 250s in Raleigh. I have seen two ISFs here and saw one when I was in Virginia a couple weeks ago. Had a guy in a bone stock IS350 pull into my parking lot at work a couple days ago. He looked at my car like it was a modded 240sx or something....? Dweeb........
