Someone should have posted, "I betcha I can throw a football over them mountains." haha
And davcrz5, holy crap! to some of those Mazda 3 times!! But I will say, if it requires that much modding and tuning to run it that fast, is it even really a Mazda 3 anymore????? I think not.

Mazda with second fastest time is running big garret turbo 1200cc injectors new pistons big front mount etc nice numbers but know longer real street car once again any car can be made to run fast if you have time and money. I had SRT 4 that made 400 plus whp with all mod in it was fun car but was no way near as nice as my F was damn scary over 130mph where Our F are rock s
olid at speed not to mention SRT 4 was handful keeping proper tune on car always something .

I raced a modded Mazdaspeed3 from 40-100mph. I was in third, and he was in 2nd...after 60, I roared passed him and almost couldn't see him in my rear view mirror. 
That post makes me laugh.

Difference between one of fastest stock IS-F vs one of fastest stock Mazda 3 in 1/4 mile 1.5 sec which is hugh and as speeds increase into triple digits that gap will increase even further.

After 100mph she put like 4 cars on me before i hit 130 it was crazy. She still hasn't let me live that down! And I RAPE MS3's so I really dont see even a 400whp MS3 keeping up!

Any car can be made fast vs. stock. In the end its all personal preference. I like my IS350 so far... but yes.. IS-F is in my sights for upgrade soon. 
BTW, here is my old Eclipse at Rockingham, NC dragway.. fun times... money pit... but fun.

On my 5th Lexus only to find a thread about me.
I'm on club Lexus, and I find a post about me from my college days. Talk about a revival from the dead . Hahah. Guess I came a long way since I'm in an LS500 now. OP sold his ISF for a 135i clown car. I guess someone went backwards? Hahahaha
