The two cars have different target markets. The IS is a luxury model while Cary is just a family sedan. You can't also compare both cars in that Lexus IS is a RWD while Camry is a FWD. Lexus Is comes in V6 engines while the Camry has an i4 cylinder version. It's not an apple to apple comparison.

In terms of running cost, the Camry will be cheaper to run even the V6. The lexus is250 is turned towards sporty drive and will ordinarily consume more fuel than the Camry. Lexus is250 spare parts will be more expensive because is a luxury car.

On the flip side of the story, the Lexus IS250 gives you a better drive experience in terms of performance, aesthetics, comfort and prestige.

Finally, both cars are durable and reliable with a good maintenance culture. If you won't stick to the recommended engine oil and fluids as well as OEM parts, please stay away from any of those cars.
