Occasionally some of us do bad; we engage in low-speed streeties when the setting seems safe to all. Just for fun I developed a list of possibly lesser-known cars that might unmake a 545i or 550i driver's day if not paying attention to the car next to him or her.

I've seen a review in some magazine where they claim the IS-350 0-60 is around 6 sec. I think 5.1 is a bit too low.

My friend picked up his IS350 that has about 3300 miles on the clock now.

Am i itching to race him? No not really... I've always had better looking girlfriends and cars than he ever had.

I'll wait for some punk ass kid who just cut me off or gives me the tough guy look at a stoplight.
