There is no shame or need to feel insecure in owning a 250 just because it's de-badged. It's a Lexus, lots to be proud and passionate about. Some folks like me may feel the emblem is long, especially with the AWD moniker and just looks better reduced or removed, regardless of whether it's a 350 or 250.

I have a rare 350 here in the NY/NJ area where like 90% of the IS's any generation are always 250's however i still debadged simply because it looks so much cleaner in the rear IMHO 
It does kinda suck that there's really no visual way to distinguish a 250 and 350 since they look exactly the same ?? At least with the 3 or 4 Series BMW's i've learned that they do look almost exactly the same way but one can tell them apart by checking their exhaust tips where only the 335 or 435's have the dual exhausts
