I dont think its gonna run better then a 13.7-13.8 being the weight.

On another note, I have a nice set of 2010 convertible OEM 18's for sale in PERFECT condition that would probably look amazing on your car

Mini photoshoot with iPhone 4

Good clearbra job eh?



30% all around



LED DRL Daytime



My favorite shot



Got a little "artistic." Notice bumper plugs not noticeable



iPhone HDR app



In the meantime I have some things coming in the mail: JoeZ intake pipe, Tom's filter. And contacted the guys over at Redline Motive to see if Megans/Invidia midpipe will fit AWD. Next up: suspension > wheels. Keep you guys updated.

Joe

He's in denver colorado. With density altitudes typical of that region, the IS350 is probably a 16 second car, no joke. Of course, the same is true for all cars (especially N/A cars).

The DA is so brutal that running a 16 is equivalent to running a ~mid 13 in places where elevation above sea level is much lower.

Quick update:

just pulled the Fogs and they changed the bulbs on the 2011's to H11. No longer 9006 bulbs. Blah!
