well i dont think its much difference in mpg and right now i have an 03 maxima that does the same mpg as the 370z so yea i think all things lead to the 370z ;)

LOL?

You really couldn't expect to get any Other response on a Z board, could you?

I think it really boils down to what you feel after test driving both. The Lexus is more practical, but.....there's something to be said for not having to be "it" when it comes time to drive someplace, simply because you've got a back seat!:)

If I had an is250, I'd be pissed that I didn't get the is350, and if I then got the is350, I'd be pissed that I didn't get the ISF...

so, OP if you get the lexus, you should just get the ISF.

If you're going to be a douche... be a F'in FAST douche!!! :tup:

(or just get a CTS-V and then be a hillbilly fast douche!!)

im in college right now with a 370, and i gotta say i love it. you dont have to give rides to all of your friends cause you only have one seat, you dont really need to have all the extra room right now, and its a 370...

If you can't afford the ISF Lexis then don't bother

The IS-F is a different story....compared to the 370Z.

Get the Subaru WRX STI Turbo! AWD

Buy an IS250 and badge it 350 like everyone else that's bummed they bought that car...

But in all seriousness, these cars aren't even comparable

Yeah. These two cars are on such different levels I don't get what there is to compare lol. The price difference between the IS250 and the IS350 is really small compared to what you get for it. If you're going to get a 2IS, you should really swing for the 350.

Sporty two seater or luxury sedan. Hmm... I have both so I should know haha. :D

OP, these are two completely different types of car, only the difference in horsepower is about 100hp, one is sports car and the other is luxury sedan.

I am curious what are the facts from these two cars make them your candidate??

this is why i think the OP should take a serious look at the hyundai elantra. :icon17:

Like everyone has said these are two very different cars. The IS250 is a luxury car and the Z is a sports car. So it really depends on what you're looking for. I've spent a lot of time in my bro's IS250 and so I'll try to give you some perspective on both cars. The interior in the IS is much nicer. The leather is nice and soft, dash layout is elegant, super quite inside, plenty of room in the back, but what I liked the most is how deep the black color is on the gauges/dash and interior. It looks more appealing, where the Z kinda looks like a faded black. I always felt a little disappointed hopping back in the Z after borrowing his car. Since you're not going to get much power out of the IS, tuning the suspension is a must. I remember how dull the car felt stock, but after lowering it and throwing on some bigger wheels and tires, I can honestly say I was impressed with the grip and handling. It felt like it was on rails with little body roll. As far as looks, the Z is the eye catcher when you compare them in stock form. But once you hook up the IS its a sexy looking car. Personally, I always felt more ballin driving the IS, but I always felt like a boss in the Z. The power difference is night and day, the Z is loud, a little rough, and does what you want when you want it. No matter how you look at it, the Z wins in every performance category. The interior design is great, it feels like a racing cockpit designed around the driver. The gauges are all staring you in the face and everything is within perfect reach.

The Z is a more driver focused car, if you like driving as much as I do, then the Z is the one you want.

If you like nice materials when you cruise and you're not worried about performance then the IS is the car you want.

How about Hyundai Veloster, it's in between a coupe and a sedan, 3-doors.

LOL :tup:

sure that's even better. they even have a green one for my neighbor down the street. :ugh2:
