STi are manuals and require skill... what happened there was driver error. They don't make an manual IS with a motor bigger than the i4...

I agree. I beat an is350 off a launch through 3rd gear. Shifting plus clutch timing.

What are you talking about? Lexus IS comes with auto tranny unless it's the IS250 which is actually a 204hp 2.5 V6 (or the IS220d which is a 175hp diesel inline four)

I was thinking the IS250 is an inline 4.

The is350s are fast.

I have a video of my friend racing one is his 05 g35 sedan 6mt.

Ive got a video link i just cant post it cause its done on a highway, if you want to see it PM me.


from a roll its dead even, but top end the is350 seems to have a slight edge.
Tho the one race i have on vid my buddie pulled off the win

The guy that ran 12.8, he was lightly modded with intake exhaust and midpipe.
Stock IS350 vs. bolt on G35, it will be a close one.

Also, you can't compare a 1/4 time. You'd have to correct the time since you guys are at different elevations from him.

its pretty impressive that IS350 pulled 1.9 60' on street tires and trapped 109mph with just full exhaust.
