Wow, that's the first time I've ever seen somebody doing that. That's pretty awesome. Lexus > BMW imo.

no, it would be 330...

the first number denotes series, while second two denote engine displacement

W T F. I think you mean to say that the 2JZ engine is better than any other engine porduced by BMW which is something I can agree with but just flat out saying (or sure as hell implying) that it's better in every way is absurd (I esp. think so because I drive a BMW ).

PS: I don't think I would buy that even with a 2JZ engine and a BMW body. If it was in a E90 or some other newer car there would be no debate about it IMO.

Reminds me of the guy back in the day who put an E36 M3 motor and two (think it was two) turbos in a 318i and rebadged it as a 332i. He went around harassing vipers and sportbikes. It was classic.
