Where in VA? I still havent seen many at all. Maybe 3-4 in the last couple months.
Granted, I havent made it up to Fairfax/Arlington/etc since getting the car.
Thankfully, I've yet to ever see another MRM on the road.

I have the '14 IS250 F Sport and since January, I've come across 6 and that's probably a stretch. I know of only 3 specific homes that have one. Any other time I've seen a '14 F Sport is on the highways.

I'm from SoCal. I see them all over the place. And those awkward moments when the same Lexus IS250/350 is in front/behind/beside my car at very long stop light with the same color exterior and interior. As much as I want to look at the owner, for some reason I avoid eye contact.

LOL....I do the same thing. Just had one sitting next to me at the light today. Same color combo.

I agree with everyone. Miami has many IS250 especially where I live in west Miami. Too be honest I love my IS350 F sport the way it is exterior wise. I only miss the rain sensing wipers, cooling and memory seats features. I wonder if this can be added to the 2014 cars?

Reporting from SoCal (Los Angeles). 250s are a dime a dozen here but then again, driving a Lexus in LA is like driving a civic in terms of the "impressive" factor. It's hard to compete when every other car in your neighborhood has a price tage of $80k+. But I grew up in Minneapolis so to me, the 3IS is still a beautiful and impressive vehicle.
Here is how I've managed to differentiate somewhat (I have a lease so I can't do much):
1. Went with the 350 F Sport in Nebula Gray. Most of the ones I see here are 250 non-F and White.
2. Debadged the "IS350": I don't need people to know what's under the hood or that I have the bigger engine. Just as long as I know what's under there.
I think it looks way better clean and without the letters/numbers.
3. Swapped out the dealer license plate frame for an F-sport one. Haha but seriously 90% of the ones driving around here have "KEYES LEXUS" plate frames.

Miami is definitely home of the IS250 FSport. Have to wait a month for my '15 UW/Rioja because they're nowhere to be found. And the ones en route have already been sold.
anxious for its arrival tho!
