yea, in retrospect i will def get an 03-04 next time, popping a spark plug worried me to death lol. I had a few things done to mine, 2" lowering shackle, 22"s, clear corners etc, basic stuff. The best part was when i sold it almost stock, i got $2500 more than i paid for it

Anyway, im really surprised at the power the IS has, spins tires making turns from a stop pretty freely, and i dont even feel like im driving it hard...

Well, I didnt end up getting the gs300. Instead I jumped on a C5 Corvette, it was a deal too good to pass up
