it is called the IS300 over there because it comes with the 3.0 liter 3GR-FE, the number following the model refers to engine size

Thanks everyone

as for the "daytona tires", after i saw how it looked on my friends mazda and since
he used a glass marker white pen that can be easily washed off,i said what the heck
let me do it, too bad the pen finished before i did the "potenza".

it looks inredible while moving!

Ha, Daytons, that is a blast from the past (LOL). I am sure someone around the world has done this to a 2gen.

P.S. The IS300 2gen was given that engine do to fuel standards varriance in other countries. It only offers about 245 hp's if I remember correctly. This was brought up severl months ago and I think Bichon posted the engine specs.


Quick Reply: some pics that i took ,,, what do you think?
