    TLs are great, better perf I think but the lexus is unbeatable IMO, the awd is sweet for calgary driving too, go IS250

    That's why I just say I have a 4" dick and lift weights to make up for it.

    compared to an STi, anything feels like Butter... Heck even my Frontier with Off road suspension feels like your floating on the road

    Those are both great choices. Personally I like the styling of the TL better than the IS. In terms of goodies, both come packed with features. The AWD of the Lexus is a good feature here in Calgary. Although, my friend who drives a TL says that the stability control in the TL is excellent. Yes, I'm on the fence on this one too.
