Do all ISx50's have a hump in the driver's footwell?
I test drove an IS250 AWD today and the hump in the driver's footwell was a bit anoying. Is this an AWD thing or do all IS's have this?

I think only the AWD has it due to the special drive train it has. The RWD and AWD has different carpets because of this. The "stupid hump" also gets hot at times also.
for AWD.

I didn't know that AWD version has that.

I've got the hump, and it actually fits the contour of my leg just right so that it sort of rests on it as i drive....i applauded it at first before i realized not everyone is the same height as me or has their seat in the same position
