IS350 all the day. Took my car in for servicing one day and they gave me an IS250 loaner car. The power I was getting was comparable with my 1998 Accord. It was just really bad. The 0-60 times may only be a difference of about 2 seconds, but that 2 seconds translates into a significant increase in acceleration when merging onto the freeway or turning onto a main street from your neighborhood.

Lol! Of course it's comparable to a 98 accord. The 6cyl has nearly the same HP and tq ratings as the 250. If you're comparing the 250 to the 4cyl variant, it probably just feels like that because its such a big dip in power.
