if you want to smoke this person real bad, ask someone here to swap car (IS 350) with the same exterior color and interior color, such identical it wouldn't notice that your car is 250. de badge the the 350 to 250..i think this person wouldn't know uness this person check the front brakes..remember to bet....

Even if he does beat you, he ends up driving home in an older civic while you cruise home in a newer Lexus

This is quite funny actually, because every time someone on CL says something about modding the ECU or trying to go faster, I always respond with the same comment "If I wanted to go faster I would have kept my Civic!" (or something along those lines). Point being, Drive slow, be happy and if little civic wants to be all Vin Diesel "Fast and Furious" let him be... Now, swap for an IS350 and go do some *** whooping...

You belong to the minority of 350 owners.

QFT haha. it's still a 250 even if you debadge it. "it's cleaner", that's always the explanation/excuse lol.

to hide the fact that it's a 250, and not a 350. i like the 350 more, but i see no shame in driving a 250. be happy that you don't have to drive a sh.itbox.
