Default My new DD - 2K10 IS (bad quality)

It was a tough decision, but I decided to sell my STi and get something a bit more practical. Sad to lose AWD, but this car is effing awesome. Here's my 2010 IS 350 and yes, I'm aware the quality blows.

More practical or more grown-up?

Either way, they're nice cars. Looks good.

I could be wrong but I think all Lexus' are rwd.

or at least the IS series
IS 250 - 2.5 L 4GR-FSE V6, 204 hp (153 kW), rear wheel drive
IS 250 AWD - 2.5 L 4GR-FSE V6 with all wheel drive (with front:rear torque split of 50:50 to 30:70), 204 hp (153 kW)
IS 350 - 3.5 L 2GR-FSE V6, 306 hp (228 kW), rear wheel drive
IS F - 5.0 L 2UR-GSE V8, 417 hp ( 311 kW), rear wheel drive

All IS 350's are RWD. The IS 250 has optional AWD. The GS's have an optional AWD. The ES, I believe, is FWD.

Yeah, I would never get the IS 250... For some reason they sell a ton. I'll take a stripped 350 over a loaded 250 any day.
