2010 lexus is 250 Professional Edmunds ReviewSource: Edmunds...Rear-wheel drive is standard and it can be equipped with either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic, while all-wheel drive is available and only attached to the auto.

The IS C is not as rock-solid as the BMW 3-Series convertible, and therefore isn't as responsive to... |
