I'd take the Lexus any day.. something about the interior in the newer Lexus is just super comfortable, and all the toys and gadgets are in the perfect places.

Nice, grats on making the choice.

I was actually pondering the same choice recently: IS250/350 F-Sport, 3 Series, A4/5. I pretty much had my heart set on the 350 but was informed they would have to order one and it wouldn't get here til Feb. With the Toyota 86 / Subbie BRZ coming in March... That throws another car in the mix! I like the attributes of the 86 quite a lot, and the difference in price is another factor.

anyone who doesnt take the $919 option for LEDs is just plain stupid. The LEDs are one of the main reasons the A4s looks so modern and stylish.

GRIM...

If I were you I'd look into the IS350 unless AWD is a must for you. Just saying everybody likes a bit more power..

From a maintenance standpoint.. good choice. Audi's are good until you hit around 100k, then the replacements start. =]

None of the above.

Buy a slightly used TL-S. Beastly engine, serious suspension, giant brakes, luxury all over the place, Honda reliability. And cheaper.

Buy an IS250 to make it look like an IS-F....

i like the BRZ/86, but not suitable for me/my situation.

Will you be using the car as a business expense?
