I have never done a break-in for all my cars and they all last well over 100k. As long as you warm up your car to proper temp. and do all the maintenance items regularly, almost all Japanese cars will last you very long.

Considering Motor Trend got 0 - 60 mph in 5.5 seconds and 1/4 mile in 14.0 seconds from the AWD IS 350, I could see the 300 lbs lighter IS350 RWD F Sport going 0 - 60 mph in 5.1 seconds and 1/4 mile in 13.5 - 13.6 seconds.

Here is a trick how to get low 5 seconds on the new IS m! I have IS350 non F, gas close to empty , press and hold traction off until the light show up on your gauge . sport mode manual and just floor it .
Temperature , elevation , tires, number of passengers , gas type etc` all those things play a role.
my best run 4.926sec , night time , elevation 0 temperature 57.
by having empty gas tank your shading 142 lbs.

i had a test drive today again with the IS 350 Fsport and got 0-60 in 6.8sec, it felt very slow, i did another 0-60 with my 2007 G35 and i got 5.8 (bad tyres). However, there is one thing, the test drive happened in the city of Dubai and here we have Dunlop tyres instead of Bridgestone Turanza + the temperature today was 122F 
, Do you think guys this will justify the 6.8sec? Please your advises

Please go back and check it again.
The AWD time is probably closer to 5.6-5.8 seconds.

The 3 IS need to shift into 3rd gear and hit 60mph, In general, the 0-60 times is around 5 second.
I really wonder how does the 3 IS 350 compare with the 2 IS 350 0-60, 0-100 and 0- speed limiter.
Someone please do some run…haha

Can anyone verify this? I'm waiting for mine to be delivered and that one thing that was bothering me about this car was the fact it shifts itself in manual mode. This will be my first automatic car.
