Bought my first IS250 at age 22. (2006 AWD Silver)
Sold it. Traveled the world for a year.
Came home, went car shopping, ended up with another IS20!
Age 23: 2008 IS250, AWD, Nav, cam, GFM color (amazing!)

I am surprised at the results that a majority of the people who have voted are in the 18-25 range! I don't see many younger people my age in any position to afford such a nice car!

I imagine there's a few reasons for that. The first and most common would be parental help. The second would be a large number or used IS's in the 2006-07 model year with 50,000+ miles can be had for relatively cheap in regards to a luxury car. The third being those who are our age and here on CL probably are in a position to afford (probably still making payments) an IS (as opposed to people our age we see locally around town). Especially when you look at the majority of IS's on here that are modded $_$. Food for thought

20, is250, regret not going with is350, the difference in mpg was minimal compared to the difference in power.

29 here. I've had the pleasure of owning a 97 ES300, 00 ES300 (winter beater), 03 IS300 (summer only) and currently an 06 IS250 AWD. For all intents and purposes, my thought process when purchasing my 250 AWD was to eliminate the need of having 2 seasonal cars. But over the years, winters here have been very mild. Needless to say, I wish I opted for the 350.

31 years young. 2007 IS350. Wasn't planning on purchasing an IS350 but a friend offered it at a price I couldn't refuse. After I drove it for the first time I was hooked. I moved from a money pit audi s4 and don't regret it at all. I must be having an early mid-life crisis because I had not modded a car in years and this thing is about to get hit with some mods.
