All of you, stop responding to Ochdx's flaming.

Ochdx, warning points have been issued to your account. If you have anything you'd like to say about this send me a PM. Any comments you make on the subject of your warning points in this thread will be deleted and not responded to.

Normally I would delete all of the offending posts in one fell swoop, but that apparently has failed to get to get noticed.

Output of the IS350 is now confirmed at 306 hp. It's basically the same engine that makes 280 hp in the Avalon but with the addition of gasoline direct injection. BUT there's no manual transmission available yet. Only the IS250 will be available with a stick for the time being..

Funny thing is, it does have 6 speed, it's 6 speed auto though . I read another thread that the IS350 hit 60mph in 5.6 sec. That's very fast for an auto. Japanese auto makers are finally getting really serious. Rumors has the the next G35 will also be getting 300+HP. I wonder if Acura will put the SH-AWD on the TL and give it 300+HP too.
