I am thinking about purchasing an 01' IS300 in Solar Yellow. It will be the E-shift. I drove it yesterday and was quite pleased. Are there any big differences in 0-60 times in the 02' manual compared to the 01' E-shift?

By that article that smokin'_joe showed me, I will be happy with my E-shift. The times are very similar. Not enough to pay extra grands for the 02' manual.
0-60 was 7.4 compared to 7.8
1/4 was 15.3 compared to 15.6 both trapped at 90mph
Lexus however says the car is capable of 6.4 in manual version.

Acceleration isn't the main thing I care about. I want to put an expensive audio setup in there. Then just have fun with what the car already has. After a few years I would consider forced induction.
