I love how everyone is saying the IS250 is sooooo slow and underpowered yet the Audi only has barely over 200hp as well..... they're putting the same power down.
I drove a regular IS250... it's not fast but it's not super slow either, geez, you guys are harsh and most of you probably drive slower cars than a IS250 so grains of salt... grains of salt...

I like the A4 > A3, even if both are AWD.

That said, the A3 is TINY inside.
