3000GT SL vs IS 3000?

which one would win? thank you.

1. It's IS 300.
2. Assuming both cars are manual tranny, I'd give a slight edge to the IS 300. I'm assuming you're talking quarter mile.

ya both manual, 0-60 and quarter mile time.

PS: Notice im talking about the 91-96 SL, DOHC 222HP 205 torque. Thanks

215 hp vs 220 hp

3,200 vs 3200 pounds

RWD vx FWD

I think this is going to be pretty tight. The driver will decide this one. If the drivers are equal (and they never are) the RWD of the IS300 might just be the difference maker.

the IS300 3200 pounds??? where did you get these facts from yogs??
:-O

Go to www.edmunds.com (http://www.edmunds.com) and check the stats. I believe the IS 300 is 3285 lbs., and the 3000GT SL is around 3300...

Yeah - the IS300 is heavier then most people think.

i agree about the RWD being an advantage.

i was actually thinking the is300 weighed more with 2 extra doors

this is as close as it gets

Don't forget about gearing...what's the gear ratios for each?
