Isn't this a bit of an oxymoron??? A student on a tight budget, yet he is driving a Lexus. Times have changed. When I was a student back in the 70's my GF, now wife, was living high off the hog with a base Toyota Corolla, one of the first in the USA.

For performance and AWD you should go after a new Evo or STI.
For less performance than the STI and EVO but includes some luxury and awd look into the A4, 335ix etc. They will be a bit more expensive but also offer a good amount of mods.
Most get the 250 AWD for the quality of a Lexus and awd features but it by no means has the power of the 350. With every option on the 250 awd I bought for the wife it was 44k out the door but she wanted all the goodies, decent mileage and has enough power for her.

No, the S4 and 335xi are both significantly more expensive. The price of a base S4 is around $13,000 more than a base IS250 AWD, and the price of a base 335xi is around $6,000 more.
