There are like 3 250's in my town that I've seen and I have the only 350 and none of the 250's are modded either. Fairly small city. Like 30,000. Here in the midwest, most people don't care much for when you buy foreign cars.

I see like 1 maybe 2 a day, but it's usually the same ones. And they're both 250's. But I have seen a 350 but not in a while. I live in the Mill Creek/ Hamilton Mill/ Mall of Gerogia area in Georgia.

Yeah California definitely has it better weather and beach wise. I've never been there, but every time I watch a show set in California it just looks so nice there. Clean beaches and water, palm trees, warm and sunny with no extreme humidity year round. Very pristine. You guys got it made out there. Greenwich is the hedge fund capital of the world, and Wall Street lives here, but other than the money, well, let's just say we don't have palm trees and the nice weather.

As for IS X50's in my area, I have 3 in my neighborhood, 2 are 250s, 1 is a black 350. Then there are 6(!) at the courthouse regularly, I think I started a trend since I had the first one - there are 3 IS350s (my SGM, a Matador Red and a Black) and 3 IS250s (all 3 are Black).

I guess I should also add that Lexus/BMW/Mercedes/Porsche are kind of the poor man's car here given that we have a Lambo, Lotus, Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Maserati, and Bentley dealership all within a mile of each other so I see those around. The yellow Lambo, Elise, and Ferrari are fairly common. There are a couple of Bentleys in the parking garage of my office right now, and no I don't own either of them. Of the Lexus models I'd say the RX and LS are the most popular. The silver carreras are everywhere around here, so they just blend in the background to me. It's fun to go down and look at a Benz with a $550,000 price tag. Nice stuff that I can never afford.

My area (Bayside Queens), Ive only seen 2 other IS350s. One is black with smoked taillights and the GFX that roams around Springfield Boulevard. Another is a white one that roams around Northern Boulevard.
Mine so far is the only silver in the area.

I live in the seattle area and I don't really see that many in seattle..But where I live and drive the most (Bellevue) which is the "richer" area, I see 90% woman driving 250s majority 250 awd. The 10% of men i See in a IS are 350s. But I dont mind seeing hot chicks and moms driving around. I see about 8 2nd gen IS a day. I just look like everyone of them since i just bought my car...now its time for a modding spree to stand me out.

Both generations of IS are quite common in the S.F. Bay Area. Although I think Lexus/Toyota was right about the mix of 250s to 350s. It doesn't seem like Jane or Joe Sixpack are that interested in stepping up the $5K for the extra power. The number of 350s on the board seems disproportionately high. I've got to of 'em on the block both 250s.

I don't think south florida is a rich area in general but I see IS250 EVERYWHERE. ONce in a while I see an IS350, that's why I had to mod mine to make it look standout from the rest hehehe.
