Default IS 350 vs. Mustang GT

Alright guys. While i was in pakistan over the last couple of months my friend here in the states bought a Mustang GT. He bought just cuz i got a IS350 and thinks his car is waaaay better then mine.

To get to the point, if i would race him who would win???

I dont know but i have a feeling that i will win straight up no doubt. I dont want to race him if i am going to loose cuz i hate loosing in anything.


Any feedbacks on this would be great for my knowlege

Thanks

Hmm.....i dont know who will win since I don't know about performance of cars. but uh....gotta say that the old school mustangs are pretty hot. But the new ones are not too appealing. Are you gonna race him or wat? IF you are, be careful.

Yea I was at the track a while ago, and got put up against a stock new-generation Mustang GT. They are turds. I forget what their time was, but trust me, from what I know based on what you say your times are, an IS350 will totally destroy a Mustang GT.

You won't have a problem at all. I beat him off the line, but he smoked me obviously. I wish I could find that damn time slip, but it was back in August.
I do know, FOR A FACT, he hit the 1/4 in the high 90 mph's, didn't come close to hitting 100 mph.

Yeah, Stock vs Stock the IS350 will win. There was a video just like that but at the end the GT crashed...maybe that video was edited cuz at the end I heard the GT skidding ... showing that the Lexus also has better brakes then the Mustang
