I just replaced my e46 M3 with this IS250. I miss the power and torque (Dinan software, pipes, exhaust, 6 spd) so I'd likely just picked up another one if I had to. Or an 350 F Sport used

Although I just got my 3IS (love the car so far), I would probably replace it with an Alfa Romeo Giulia or a Tesla Model 3 (if the wait times ever gets shorter).

I have an IS 300. I would consider upgrading to the IS 350 before going to one of the other brands. I test drove the 328i and drove a friend's C450, and I must say the IS just feels like a more solid car (if slower than the C450, but... that car also costs at least $10k more). The IS 300 is decently quick but would be nice with more power. I would probably stick with the Atomic Silver - love that color for whatever reason!

If I wanted a 335 or 435, I could have gotten it instead of the IS350 but sadly the IS was more engaging to drive. Honestly, in my near two years of ownership, I can't complain about the car. It doesn't have a single rattle yet and I beat the crap out of the car everyday. I went through tires and brakes at 15k for a reason 
I think the car is so nimble and responsive that I'll keep it for another couple years. The 3 series outside of the M feels so diluted now. I'm hoping the next IS keeps the handling and goes turbo. If not, I'll be switching sides to the Germans and go Porsche.

90% sure another IS, been climbing the HP ladder starting with a 2012 AWD 250, then a 2014 AWD 250 and now a 2016 300 F-Sport. Looks like a 2018 IS 350 will be next. Overall, satisfied with all of them with the exception of the life span of the tires and PLEASE Lexus, offer a standard key fob remote start already!
