has anyone had a run in with the new lexus is350? im looking into them and i was wondering if anyone has raced one. they look pretty fast considering it is a four door luxury car.

 

wait for the is500 [8D]500hp v8-v10 will be around 55-60,000! 2008 or 2009!

 

i would, but i am 18 years old and i dont have quite enough money for the is500, and i dont think i could afford insurance for it either.

 

well the 350 is def a nice car, but if you can find one.... the awd 5spd IS250X is nice also. They are almost as fast with lower insurance. They already come with nice 18" rims/lip kit/ and exhaust that sounds good!!

 

hmm someone isn't going after the M5... lol - wonder how heavy the IS500 will end up being?

 

The IS350 is not cheap either, they're around $40k... insurance is definitely going to be expensive too.

You paying for this yourself, or are your parents helping you?

 

they start at about $36.5k so it will be about 38 out the door with the options i want, because my family has bought several lexus's from this dealer so they are going to give me a nice deal. i am paying for half of the car.

 

yup i have raced one.. and drove one my boss has one.... they are quick but up top i got him.. very smooth cars cant feel a bump on the road over 100...

 

yeah i hope to turbo it, but i cant seem to find any turbo kits for the is350, only the is300. i think with a nice turbo setup it should be an awesome car.

 

oh yea deffinatly... you have to do a custom turbo
