If this is polystyrene, Styrofoam, about my favorite tool is a good long wavy 
serrated bread knife.

Hot wire is maybe better never made one and you can use a hand saw but the dust 
is static and messy and hard to clean up and the cut isn't as nice.

Where precision is less important I score it fairly deep then just snap it off.

Hope this helps.

  Ok guys...
  My mom has been complaining about not having an insolated garage door. It is
  one of those metal doors that is made up of a series of metal panels. The
  inside edges are double broken to a depth of 1&1/4". The inside dimensions
  of these panels is 41&5/8" long and 18&5/8" high. Although the package of
  insulation panels proclaims "fits all standard garage doors." I know I will
  need to do some trimming and fitting. I have a square and a straight edge so
  I am not to concerned about getting it straight and even. My question is,
  what the hell do I cut this stuff with? Everything I own except for a couple
  of really good pocket knives and my new PC Circ saw is designed for cutting
  metal.
