The IS 250 is NOT the way to go if you want ponies. I have a bigger engined, more powerful IS 300 and I still don't find the car to be any fun at all. The 250 will be severely lacking. 204 hp just isn't enough. Edmunds.com said it best- "As an entry-level luxury sedan with a dash of panache, the 2009 Lexus IS 250 is an appealing proposition -- but as a sport sedan, it falls a bit short."
Go for the STi. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates. Even Socrates told us to use the search button!
