"no way.. my chipped 335 will eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I beat a GTR on a roll and he even jumped on me. We went from 60-200 MPH. I was ahead by 5 car lengths by 150 and couldnt see him on my mirrors anymore after......"

LOL

So glad I went with an IS for my car. Was thinking of an e46 M3 but fanboyism seems to run rampant with BMW's. A big turnoff, a shame since BMW builds excellent cars.

I'm glad I got the IS, not because it's faster (don't have an IS350), but a much better forum LOL.

I raced a stretched/lowered Hayabusa that was on NOS in my IS350. He got the jump, probably because the weight difference and of course the NOS, but by the time I made it to 217mph I was reeling him in, by 250mph I had 2 car lengths. Lexus win!

edit: There are a couple idiots on that post, but a lot of the replies are reasonable/accurate. I'm sure most of the members there are not proud of some of the members remarks/perspectives...
