Dude, you DO NOT know how to drive this car properly. Bad job man...you could have taken the corner much faster and you held it stuck in redline for too long. Downshifted too much as well and hit the rev limiter. You really have no clue how to use the tiptronic. You should go buy a little toyota echo you pansy...
if you drive it hard it is, but if your driving normally its not,
i rember in korea, my dad and i were on the highwat doing 220KM/H and when the navigation goes, "speed camera ahead in 500meters" then like straight away it says in 200m, my dads like shiiit, and braked hard,
Its actually pretty good, I've got the awd, which cuts into it a bit, but I've been getting up to 28 mpg highway, and low to mid 20s just driving around
lucky you, I get tops 19 mpg on highway and about 14 mpg in the city with my IS 350. I heard it's even worse in the IS-F, but it's expected with since it's got a larger 5 Liter engine V8 and 416 hp.
You're right. If it wasn't for the speed i get in the 350, i would get a 250. I work less than 5 miles away roundtrip and still spend close to $75 a week in premium gas :-(
@infomeetingplace really? That's pretty bad mileage. I've seen V6 Camrys get 24+ combined mpg easy and the 3.5L V6 in the Camry is VERY similar to the V6 in your IS350.
Hell my uncle averages about 16-18 mpg in his 5.7L V8 Tundra.
is250's are slow as shit

in real its not that noisy
if you drive it hard it is, but if your driving normally its not,
i rember in korea, my dad and i were on the highwat doing 220KM/H and when the navigation goes, "speed camera ahead in 500meters" then like straight away it says in 200m, my dads like shiiit, and braked hard,

Wow, that' a pretty big difference between the 250 and the 350, but you've got alot more speed though

Ouch! Yeah...the 250 isn't really a car you'd call fast by any means....but it's not That big of a deal because the rest is so nice
