Thank you very much! I think that a couple thousand bucks is very much worth it to have a lexus that drives like a bmw!

my car now (coilovers, sways, and wider wheels) definitely handles a lot better, but sometimes i wish the steering is a bit more responsive and tighter, which is still my preference on the bmw cars. just that you know

Why anyone would want their Lexus to drive like a BMW is beyond me. I would rather it drive like a Porsche. Stop setting your goals with substandard expectations. I know I know.

hahah that's so funny lee

and yes, gene is right on, it will never drive like a bimmer. even my gs400 so heavily modded, i can outrun 540i any day, but still the driving feel is not closed to a bmw imho

I was quite sure it wouldn't be AS good as a bmw but either way it is a definite improvement.
I am not saying that the lexus drives bad at all I am just use to taking turns at high speeds ( although the freakin neighborhood kids get in the way every once in a while ....I took care of that..hehe) and running around slow riding cars or little hondas with body kits. I just didn't want to have to change o' soo much. Pearl Power, I understand completely ill try to do better next time
