It was a fun car but honestly I felt ripped off paying that much for it. The interior felt super cheap, the stereo was horrible, the paint chipped if you looked at it wrong. The only thing I really miss is the 6spd and the hp and tq as my is is auto and a 250 because I wanted the awd.

As if the IS isn't low to the ground OR claustrophobic as compared to the TL? ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)

The TL was nice for the short time that I owned it, but when it's time to go, it's time to go. I started seeing them everywhere; plus my wife complained so much about how low to the ground it was, how claustrophic in it she felt, and how harsh the ride was. Geesh!
That wasn't everything; however, all of the complaining was enough in itself to switch back to Lexus. We previously had an RX300; she didn't like that one much either.
I knew that she loved the IS350 when she called me one day to comment on how she was traveling from work, at about 30mph, in 6th gear, but could still feel the power. She said that she barely touched the pedal and it pinned her back into her seat, made her stomach get that weird feeling as she described it.
No matter; this one's a keeper...uh, um, I mean, these two are keepers!
No regrets; the switch was more than worth the soaking.![Woot](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/woot.gif)

Big Turbo, stroked SRT-4. 463whp 441wtq. God do I missed the speed and the raptor bov but the almost 10mpg and loud *** exhaust drone I could do without. Not to mention more quality ***. lol. I love my IS
