Traction control on or off?
I know the '06 is annoying in that you have to go through that annoying pedal dance to turn traction off.
Traction on vs traction off results in a difference of almost a full second 0 to 60 which is quite huge.
Then again, having traction off but getting really poor traction will also result in a bad time.

Traction control was off.
Haha I turned it off for fun on the way to pick up my friend, then I ran into the e500.

You know the IS350 "paddle shifters" don't actually shift your gears right? They're just gear limiters.

the 2004 E500 can get 60 in 5.9 seconds. If the car is in good condition and the driver is not drunk it will probably rape the is350

Explain how a car that goes 0 to 60 in 5.9 seconds (e500) rapes a car that does 0 to 60 in 4.9 seconds (IS350)
