Has anyone heard of any performance parts for the IS 250, we need it more than you 350's although you guys have to compete with the IS-F's.

OKAY. SEMA is only about a week away. Someone knows something about the goods to be presented at the show. How about a little preview!!! I know we have some CL members that do have the inside scoop.

I don't understand some of you guys with your 250's you want more power, but you didn't know what kind of power the 250's have versus the 350's. Didn't you test drive both before you bought, I know I did. Just my 2 cents.

Maybe its just because of the AWD that the 350 doesnt have.

some ppl like me needed a car right away and couldn't wait the 14 year wait for a special order on the IS 350.

Plus the one I wanted wasn't available.

I believe I heard the ratio of IS 250's to 350's in the northeast was something like 8,000,000:1

lol


- Edit

My numbers might be a wee bit off ^^
