oh by the way,

Graphite Gray- ME
Silver- Erik
Black- our friend eddie (stock)

I dynod 348rwhp, the silver is pushing 352. I had 4 people in my car in the videotaped race where I start at his door and he slowly walks me. ) When we race with equal weight, nobody gains an inch- the cars are identical, and it's so much fun to drive around in pairs terrorizing V8s

edit- by the way, my best 1/4 was 13.2 @ 107, 85F, humid day.

I expect to break into 12s with slicks and a little cooperation from the weather. Will keep you posted!

IS300s are cool cars, but I would never buy one. They are too much money for the performance that you get from them. Performance and practicallity is really my main interest when purchasing a vehicle. Which is why I will be purchasing a motorcycle soon. To each his own I suppose.

That's why I went out and did something about that I mean, the car comes with the inline 6 from the Supra for Christ's sake. That engine was MEANT to be boosted.

So, now I have a car that cost me about $40K when all was said and done, and I smile and wave as I walk m5s. You can't beat that.
