Seems most everyone posting here so far lives in California and sees a lot of IS models on the road everyday. I live in Minneapolis and while I see (no kidding) roughly 20 BMW 3-series and 15 Audi A4s daily, I'm lucky if I see 3 IS models in a day. They're rare here, even though we have two very successful Lexus dealerships. I drive an IS350, but I usually only see IS250 AWD considering all the snow we get here in Minnesota. Mostly men (some women), all in their mid 30s. Personally, I like this ratio... insures that I'm not seeing an IS at every stoplight!

Oh yeah, when I'm not traveling mine is driven 10-20 miles daily.

When I can, I drive my teg to work. But I drive the IS almost 80% of the time I am on the road.
