If you consider your car as not just a transportation appliance but, instead, as a piece of sporting equipment, you’ll feel right at home behind the wheel of the IS 250 or IS 350. An added benefit – you won’t see clones of your car on every street corner.
You might be convinced that no Japanese car, no matter how competent, can match the driving enjoyment delivered by the BMW 3 Series. And if you seek a car with styling so distinct you can discern its brand without seeing its badging, the IS’s handsome but derivative styling might not push your buttons.
