could be cause mine was the 5 spd. time?
but didn't the auto do low 7s?

but still the IS has 40hp less, so the maxima should be faster

I didnt know you were talking about the new 5-speed.

Your probably right on the 5-speed times , they may be

faster , anyway according to car and driver the 0 to 60

times was 7.6. The only thing I was thinking about is that

it seems like the IS should of been a little faster than it was

considering its size and its horsepower. It is a sweet little

machine, I must admit though.

every magazine that i have read up on about the new 5 speed IS, its not much faster then its automatic sibling. plus from what i've read, the ratio on the tranny is extremely open. therefore when it shifts it pretty much throws it out of its powerband and it has to start over again. why did they even do such a thing i have no clue
