I stopped reading when you stated that the Lexus is FWD HAHAHHAAAAA!!
It's RWD, is much better balanced and will handle much better than what your Mustang or Camero ever will.

Still using live axle the Mustang? LMAO
Please go open a "I wish my Lexus had a vagina so I could hump it" thread or something instead of perpetually hijacking this one.

Get out to the vintage races and you will see plenty of these cars.
You will not see them on the highway or the local car show circuit.

BTW right at LRP you will find plenty.
Gotya.. youre right.. theres thousands running around there... but certainly not 90% of the race cars on American road courses... but plenty of them none the less...


BTW.... OP Did you purchase yet!?!? lol

Other than reliability, why on earth would I want an IS350 over a mustang? Can you tell me what the appeal is ? I'm in my 20's, not my 50's, 60's so forth.

Did I say American road courses because I meant American cars on American road courses. So that eliminates all the Japanese and German cars you see on road courses.

Hey, you're the kind of people I'd admire, I agree about mustangs.

Never said I was against the mustang, it's actually my favorite of the 3. I was asking the poster why he thinks an old persons car like IS350 is a superior car even though he hasn't backed up his claims.

+1.....for a while I had to question, if I was reading a friendly internet chat forum, or did I accidentally turn on a soap opera. From the looks of it, it's the latter.

Popcorn anyone?

It's funny because Car And Driver tested the new 5.0 against a BMW M3 & the Mustang was just as fast. So much for your live axle drivel.
