I could never cut my fender... It's so pristine and rust free.

My biggest clearance issue is my shock tower and my compound turbo piping haha

How do you think I cut my fenders Wink Air dremel idea with a cut off disc for me. I forget the proper name so lets go with that lol

Anyone in here owned an is300 or have much experience with them? I think that's my next car to buy.

I found it a little underpowered even though it had a bit more hp than my car... in theory anyways. But with a couple minor mods they can be pretty fun.

When I was looking into altezzas the common complaint was how hefty they are.

Insurance is outrageous here in the states for them. For that reason alone I avoid them.

That's why it felt underpowered. They're super heavy. They really need another 75hp or so just to feel right.

That may also be due to being a Lexus. Crazy insurance probably comes with most of their vehicles.

Strangely though, I find my Legacy doesn't feel underpowered even being the N/A, still fun as a daily, but I'm sure the LGT feels better. Can't say anything as I haven't driven one.

My AUTOMATIC SOHC N/A EJ20 impreza is powerful enough to be a fun daily.

Subaru's are strange that way. I've driven quite a few cars with better HP to weight than my wrx but mine still feels better. Not fat and heavy. Not underpowered... though another 50whp would be just about right.

Honestly...my car with my summer alignment is probably too much for most folks to drive. LOL!

Sc300s seem way cooler to me than the is300 but that's entirely based on looks.
