cheers,

I don´t know and I really don´t really care about it. I got my sources from the european magazines around and not exactly been 0 to 60 but 0 to 100. Well, cheers

strange to find such an inconsistency between these sources, as im quoting out of a european car mag too...

man...this is an old post...as for the color of the IS, i would get blue, cuz thats what i have...man, it looks amazing. as for mods, if i had the money, i would definitely TC it. but realistically, mods for the IS come pretty expensive, especially since it is a Lexus. I have an Altezza emblem and a Blitz body kit, just so y'all know =) and there is no way there is a 3 second difference bet. the auto and man trans.

FELLAS THE CAR LOOKS GR8 AND FUQ IT RIDES LIKE A FREAKEN DIMEPIECE! BUT DOESN'T IT SUMTIMES LOOK LIKE A FREAKEN HONDA CIVIC? I PERSONALLY LOVE THE CAR, I WAS PLANNIN TO GET WITH SUMMER, BUT WHEN U THINK ABOUT IT, ITS RESEMBELANCE TO THE HONDA KILLS IT! BUT THATS JSUT MY OPINION.

WOW it's great to see that there are a few is300 enthusiasts here. i drive a 2001 graphite grey is300. i got it back in december and i love it. i dont know how many people here are from the san francisco bay area but if you're from around there then be sure to watch out of a graphite is300 representin for team afterimage. :licker:

i saw the IS300 a few days ago at palm beach----the dude was cool enough to show me under the hood, but wouldn't let me take pictures. jackson supercharger/NOS----this one kicks ass!!!

if i got a lexus is300(which i will not) id put a SR26 and give it a wide bodie kit like this one http://www.clublexus.com/gallery/sho...&cat=2&page=17

I'd also do a S15 headlight conversion

then id call my IS300 "SIL-300" lol

The is300 is NOT the same engine as in a mark4 TT supra as stated above. The TT supra has the 2jz-GTE engine. This IS has the 2jz-ge engine. The IS shares the same 2jz engine as the N/a supra, however it has VVTI (Varialbe Valve Timing) which has weaker rods and internals therefore is more expensive to turbocharge because you have to exchange more than just turbo parts for the application to work. Get your facts straight!
