Lexus IS250 or IS350?

Im in the market for the IS, but I don't know which to get, the 250 is cheaper but the 350 has a more powerful engine. though I don't want to use up to much, I do want the power there and availible when I need it. Everything else with the car is the same, on the side from the engine. What to do???

You can not go wrong with either car. they're the same car as you mentioned just two different engine sizes and yes price point. do not be fooled into thinking that you won't have power in the IS 250 it's still a zippy car and plenty fast. zero 60 is 7.9 seconds. The IS 350 is 5.3. The IS 350 has a more advance stability and traction control system VDIM and VSC to manage to increased power.

And of course with a smaller engine you get better gas mileage. IS 350 21/28, IS 250 24/32 .

The best solution, if you may be able to find a dealership that has them in stock could be to drive both to see for yourself.

Wait about three months fo rth enew Infiniti G35. it'll be faster & better than the IS, and cheaper too.

the price of 350 won't be too high if you may be able to purchase a 250. R U sure that the alternatives r the same????

have you also looked at the 300? the 250 and 350 aren't too much different, just the looks and improved performance, I say if you want to go for a 350 then wait some months till their competitors create one so the price will drop

The 350 is a more powerful and quicker car, I have a IS 300 that I had for the past 5yrs and waiting to see if there will be a coupe variant of the 350 coming out. If your budget lets, then go for the IS 350

GS300

Sorry, only Mercedes Benz

It really depends on how you value take off not speed. A IS 250 can go just as fast as a 350 at any MPH it'll just take a couple seconds longer to get there.Save money and get a IS 250 same equipment and alternatives you wont miss the bigger engine.

i will go for the 350

i have the is250 and it drives great and has a kick to it unless you're going to be racing then you may want to get the 350 but if your not stick with the is250 which picks up speed fast once you hit the I call it the turbo button
