no speed limiter for the IS300.

Ive reached over 240. A fellow member reached speads of 250-255 (if i remember correctly )with a bit of cheating; long open roads on some declining slopes.


some how i had missed this thread before,
Kbh very sexy ride u got there

Some countries doesn't have the IS250/IS350, they have the IS300 instead, with 228HP.

the thread is discussing the 2nd gen IS300... which is (largely) an ISx50 with a non-direct-injection engine, sold in countries with fuel that wouldn't do well in a DI motor.
