offtopic: Is there a member on CL with either an graphite color IS250/350 turbo charged with a cf hood? I see this car parked in front of Luxury Motorsports in Monrovia, CA. I see this car daily but just a few weeks ago I noticed the FMIC.

hahah no. i grabbed some tacobell...and saw you guys leave...so i hopped in the car to make the drive more exciting.
I believe i ran a new IS/ new gs/ and a boosted is300?
o yea i forgot to add that i drove by you guys on the way up north on 152. You guys held up traffic for a long *** time. I was in the bmw silver 3 series going up north to pick up my Z from the shop.

Hey Bro Super Cool of you to pop in here ... I was the silver 1st gen IS300
(boosted ~ Pictured above~
) Very Nice wheels also...Nismo...? great color scheme !We gave you a good run, but you sure railed up the grapevine tho man!! i was trying to catch you again but, just too much S L O W traffic....
That was a fun run... & my 1st real "hard" test on the one & only Raptor Supercharger in the Western Hemisphere!... I have a development deal with Raptor Superchargers in Australia & the 1st one here has only been in my car for a month & that trip north was the 1st long road trip on it.... the run we did together to what 135MPH.
. .was the hardest I have had the opportunity to push it since it was installed...What a beauty!! the thing was Singing like a 747 taxiing for take off since it was spinning at about 50k RPM when i lifted !!Nice of you to play cool & look forward to seeing you here when the GS is yours...

That SC430 that got in the convoy for a little bit ...
Headlights on for safety ...
