hahaha oh **** i forgot about that one.
"i dunno i dont mess with them anymore lol. i've only ran one before and only because i thought it was a 250 lol since it was at night and most of them are IS250s.
IS350 and IS-F are the only lexuses that i respect.
IS250 is garbage though i rape the **** out of those all day everyday and twice on sundays. fortunately most of the IS out there are IS250s lol"
ooops

let's ease off from the new guy. we were all new and excited at one point in our forum existence (some still act that way, but i digress).
btw, as far as the cross-forum referencing, i'm not sure if the mods will allow that. however, good to know that the acura guys recognize that the is350 is the faster car.
is it worthy of what? a poser contest? a paper drag race? a "let's see who can put the most mods but not make any more horsepower than stock" contest? maybe you should have a contest to see who your parents love more? i don't know... /OT
half the race is the driver. given equal reaction time, it will come down to the weapon of choice. spec for spec, the is350 is the faster of the two - as everyone else here has said.
just rest your laurels on the fact that your car LOOKS better.

wow what a coincidence..i had a tl-s egging me on while i was driving casually on the highway last week. i dropped it in "S" which put me into 4th...i heard saw him take off after i dropped back and i smashed it (when i put it back in "D") and pulled away easily. Those things are big and heavy, and those drivers are arrogant dummies the is350 is a quick car in general so even if you are "stock" you should have no problems putting the foot in the other person's mouth

lol I was contemplating about getting a 07 TL-S before deciding on the IS350. Come to think about it, I'm glad I got the IS instead. The only think I like about the tl-s compared to the IS is the hid light output. Their projector has a lot of colors and output is very bright compared to the HID on the IS.
To the OP, yeah the IS will dust the tl-s off the line, no comparison, the rwd will eat up the fwd, unless he has turbo, then it's a different story.

You know that's going to add maybe 3 HP to the wheel, right?
Even the people on the TL forums at acurazine fear the IS350 -

Someone claimed to "gain a car length" on an IS350 in 1st gear
Here were the responses from the acura people:
"He might not have mashed the gas completely."
"the IS350 is much faster, unfortunately. with you + the weight of 2 other passengers, there's no way you would've kept up with an IS350 with a driver who knows how to drive........an automatic "
"He likely held off a bit, which resulted in a close race. "
"If it really was a IS350, you'd have no chance at all. Those are possible of mid 13's stock in the quarter mile. That's like almost a full second over you."
"Yea he prolly left traction control on or just sucks at driving those cars are qucik!!"
"Indeed and they are strong on top end, and trap at 104-105 ish stock."
"you should have lost by a light year"
"yeah right <--- I think that is what I will say from now on"
"+1 those things are ***** to the wall fast"
"yea bro i drove one and if you know how to take traction control off lol they run hard!!!
"
"I lose to my friend's stock IS350 badly even if I get a good jump. He also drives it harder than I've ever seen someone drive a nice car."
