See??? There you go again...

Nah, It's my fault. I knew when I typed that someone would think Hollywood and Ice raced one another. And, it was you!! I should have been more clear. I meant to say "The result will be the same as when Hollywood and Ice each walked an IS350." Better?

I knew it, this thread is going all over the place. People will soon lose interest b/c there will be too much "fluff" in between "kill" posts. This is ending up just like the original Kills thread over in the Competition forum.

I will give credit where it's due. G35s, IS350s, Mustangs, and Z350s can all beat a 550/545 if the driver of the 550/545 is not attentive. Know your enemy. That is why I spend time in other forums.

Comparable? So no clear winner?



I always thought the IS 350 was more clear cut winner comapring to the G35c. Maybe I was just dreaming too much,.

This is what is weird: 550/545s owns G35s, G35s owns IS350?, IS350 close match to 550/545?

I go to G35driver and hear the G35 owners beating IS350s, and visa versa at Club Lexus. We need to settle this. bmw4life, where do you live? If in Socal then you should meet up with us. EBMCS03 will bring his IS350, you bring your G35, hollywood and iceman316 their 550s, and I'll bring my 545.
