IS300 a glorified civic? When was the last time you seen a civic with 3.0 liter motor and RWD, And 215 HP. IM sure its lug nuts have more torque then any Honda

Lexus

No V6 sorry, Who really cares about 1/4 mile time when this car is passing you the turns, and has blown past you after a 1/4 mile.
I find it amazing how many civic drivers are hater's of the is300. Then again painting rear drums adds torque and HP right.

I am not a fan of the IS300 at all (glorified Civic) but the LS400/430 and the GS300/400/430 are gorgeous cars.

the IS300 was once termed, "rice for the rich." it literally is, as that car should have come over to the states as a toyota altezza. but it became a le-sux and toyota found a way to make extra money. :fawk:

i havent driven one so i can't say anything about the car's handling.
