Beat by a Lexus... dammit!
AND IT WAS A V6!!!!
Ohwell... At least it was a good V6. 350 IS, 306hp and 277tq.
it wasnt really much effort on my part though, honestly.
At a light, some younger guy with a hat on sideways driving it. I check out his ride, he checks mine out....
light goes green and we both just kinda granny it, then i go a bit quicker, he jumps on it and i jump on it. He really beat the crap outta me.
I swear. Mustangs are the slowest fast cars out there

Then again, my GT brand new ran me 28k LOADED.
The Lexus IS 350 Start at 36k.....for the base line 350 IS with no extra packages... i figure loaded would be at least 40k+
Either way, if i had the 8k cost difference in cash, i would blow my car and rape his six ways from sunday

Oh my god dude. you are so freakin stupid sometimes, i mean, it is almost painful to talk to you.
Why dont you take yer dumbass self and find where i said 04 lexus IS 300.
Go ahead.....
Ill take my time jackass.......
Cant find it? YEAH THATS RIGHT i said IS 350 ya dip****! Not 300!
The heart of the IS 350 is a potent 3.5-liter V6 that churns out 306 horsepower [1], making it the most powerful engine in its class [2]. With 277 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm [1], the IS 350 can achieve an astounding 0-60 acceleration time of 5.3 seconds [3], which is fastest in its class
Jesus, are you done now? Please say you are, yer giving me a headache. Why dont you run along? the adults are trying to talk.

You suck at the racing thing! ha ha.....just kidding. I would have thought your gears would have made you pull away at lower speeds, but then again if you would have been racing hard from the start it might have been different. It sucks when most of family cars come with more hp than 260+ hp now days.

Now get that pos out of the road so people arent jammed up behind that granny-mobile that cant get up to the speed limit.

So yeah yer right, i suck cause i raced a lexus with 40hp more than me, possibly modded, and lost...... Let see, my K&N rates 9hp increase (probably generous) and Diablow might have given me an additional 10. He still has me by about 25+hp.
So he is still looking at more hp, i dont know how they are geared, and we werent exactly sitting at the tree there. We both kinds started and about 5 seconds after take off he was hauling and i punched it.
His backend was at my front bumper when i laid off. If i was prepared and he diddnt get the jump on me, i probably could have hanged with him. Diddnt even reach 60mph because we were on one of the main roads with other traffic. Maybe the full 1/4mile i coulta caught him.
Mattj, once again, you open yer mouth and nothing you say impresses me one bit. :bash:
So Mattj. Im at work right now. Whats your escuse for not being out on st patricks day drinking it up? No friends? LOL

*cough cough* LONGTUBES!!!!
seriosuly though...let your next mod be longtubes. This reason being, it will allow your future supercharger to breath easier. Sure it'll give you 100+ rwhp without LT's, but a stock car w/ LT's will gain a certain amount of hp, a s/c'ed car that gets longtubes gets more of a gain. Kinda like your thread a while back about certain parts complimenting other parts.
Oh and jack....when it comes to your car..your mode of transportation, if you're thinkin about forcing in 8 pounds-per-square-inch extra in your car...you better make sure that crap is brand spanking new and retail...buying under retail runs the risk of getting screwed over..and your car ultimately dying. Unless it's used from a guy you know VERY well and trust...I'd not risk it. Go to mph with 4500 and walk ( or drive)out with over 100 more rwhp
