S2k is a different ball game....smaller, lighter, and no luxury at all.

BillLee · 07-27-2011, 02:10 AM

the IS350 also sounds pretty nice with the fsport exhaust.

JHFW89225 · 07-27-2011, 03:51 AM

Nice car, I find it a better daily driver than the M3

DevJ · 07-27-2011, 10:27 AM

Pretty sure if he is talking about a dyno it is to the wheels.

I've seen them do high 11s/low 12s with just I/h/e. Pretty impressive.

Yes dyno'd but here in STL we have been triple digits temps with extreme humidity so I think with better weather it's pushing 430 hp. Other guys on Club Lexus with the same setup have dyno'd that much and considering the cts-v that went before me dyno'd 40hp less with the same mods then he did the week before when we had cooler temps. /ricer excuses... LOL

Yeah, it's for keyless entry/start. Wish BMW had an option like that.

Yeah. It fits in my wallet no problems. It's probably twice the thickness of a credit card but actually smaller in dimension than a credit card.

We're moving out of Brentwood to Kirkwood on the 6th so you probably won't see it parked there after this week but I know another e92 owner on here that lives in K-wood also so I'm sure him and I will be getting together, you'll have to meet up with us.

Cdnrockies · 07-28-2011, 03:42 PM

Nice ride.

I have to say that I'm utterly shocked and impressed by the maturity displayed in this thread.

There have been multiple F threads that weren't so supportive.

Mr.E92 · 07-28-2011, 04:48 PM

Damn, Shit is soooo sick

I'm actually trying to decide if I want to get an ISF or a used E90 M3 within a year.

OP you have one of the sickest ISF's that I've seen.

By the way I see FL plates what part of Florida are you from?

I live in St. Louis but my wife and I own a place in downtown St. Petersburg. We just license everything there to avoid emissions, inspections and Missouri property taxes.

The E90 M3 is cool, but around where I live they are a dime a dozen. Not to mention I like a little variety and looking at virtually the same interior everyday (my other car is an e92) would get redundant. I appreciate all of the positive comments. I'm hoping to have the nitrous system installed sometime this year so I can put the ISF in to the 10s. My priority now is getting the 335 finished. Once I've done that I'll get back to the ISF... (or just get the Gallardo that onefastman is trying to sell me) LOL.

ChrisMT79 · 07-28-2011, 10:02 PM

Sounds excellent! Im not much of a Lexus fan myself, but I think the ISF is a pretty respectable car and I like what you've done with it.

gferil · 07-29-2011, 11:43 AM

Sweet baby jesus that exhaust sounds sweet. I rarely see ISF's even here in California, definitely more exclusive than the E9X M3!

I forgot to answer your question. I like them both equally. My ISF handles much better than the 335 but that's mostly because I haven't done much for suspension mods but for good reason. I can't have two cars that ride rough. When the turbos kick in, the 335 feels much faster until it gets to 70 mph, that's where I feel the V8 of the ISF has it's advantage.

Like I said though, both are great cars. It's a great feeling to wake up in the morning, walk outside and decide which one I want to drive that day.

OBI_agent · 07-30-2011, 09:11 AM

Awesome car man. I have never heard a better exhaust for an IS-F until now!
