There are two classes of entry-level sports sedans: those that want to be -- and those that are.

Lexus just graduated from "wannabe" to the real thing with their latest, the 2006 Lexus IS 350 and IS 250.

The previous generation IS was Lexus' foray into the entry-level luxury sports sedan market, with the company hoping that it could banish its reputation as a maker of solid, dependable -- and boring -- automobiles.

Lexus officials admit that the first generation fell short on what they hoped to accomplish, saying that it just wasn't enough of a Lexus to really make a dent in the market. By that, they mean that it did not have the expected level of luxury, comfort and amenities.
