Rommel Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 As what the title says I'm thinking of selling my wagon but the my problem is what car to replace it with. I'm tempted to get the new IS 250 AWD. I know it is slower and it is not a wagon. Even if you mod the IS it will still be slower than the LGT. I like the Spec B but with 250 HP I would just stay with my wagon. So far here are the mods on my car. Engine: STI UP Flow shorty DP Prodrive mufflers Cobb AP Exterior: RBS lip JDM sport grill EDM rain guards JDM spats 18" Prodrive P1 wheels STI lug nuts tints Suspension: STI springs JDM Spec B springs STI trailing arm set Whiteline front swaybar JDM rear swaybar Interior: STI pedal set inluding dead pedal EDM armrest extension Auto dimming mirror with Homelink Goodridge stainless steel brakelines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rommel Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 Hey...PM Suby3, he was looking for a LGT Wagon, and he's local... I know but I'm still not decided. I want the way my car handles. I'll test drive the IS tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostjunkie Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Dude... why? Especially for an IS250. The IS350 I could almost understand, but the 250 is pointless. Slower and a smaller version of the 2 other cars you have... at least the LGT wagon is different. If you are thinking of another car, get a true sports car like an Elise or a C6.

Rommel Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 AWD only comes on the 250 according to the dealer. I'm also thinking of my cousin's '87 911 Carrera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claw Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 For the Carrera, I'd understand.. but the IS? You're nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostjunkie Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 The '87 is cool, but not that quick. I'd bet that you'd show your cousin some wagon tailights with your LGT. I've driven my good friend's 2002 Carrera 2 and it doesn't seem any faster than my car, and the 2002's are a heck of a lot quicker than the 87's.

godwhomismike Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 What thows me off is the list of mods he has and then going to a much lower powered sedan. For luxury and looks it's sweet, but engaging - not too sure about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rommel Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 I'm just thinking of selling but if I can not find a better car than my wagon right now when it comes to performance I'm keeping it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
