The other day I was comin home from my girlfriend's house... going the speedlimit and minding my business, when a gunmetal-colored Lexus IS300 flys up next to me. It has jet-black tinted windows... makes me scared... not. He does the floor it, let off, floor it, let off type of crap... going forward and drifting back, meanwhile, we're cruising at 65mph. I look at him (where I think he/she'd be located through the straight black window tint), and calmly shake my head in disgust. He/she starts gunning it. I simply popped it into third gear and quickly overtook him/her. As I was passing, I waved to the car and then the shift light indicated it was time to blaze into fourth gear, leaving the IS far behind. I mean seriously, why pay $30k for a car that has absolutely no go? Is it really worth it?

wow, hot shit. i beat one in my si and it was slower than your car is.
they aren't meant to be speed demons. that is is much more stylish and refined than your civic will ever be. that person paid 30k for luxury, not speed.

It is a 210 horsepower luxury sedan. MY mom owns one, an dI must say that it is a nice car--much, much nicer than my civic.

The IS300 has tuning potential, given it's nice little 3.0 liter I-6.

I think that some of these idiots actually buy it for the "speed" as well... why else did he try to race me... I was minding my business.
