I burnt this 370z (more than likely he was a clutch happy noob) and he got mad and followed me to wal-mart parking lot.

i raced my friends IS250 F-Sport on a straight away.
i was winning and what was funny was that he said he was scared by my car sounded beastly with the resonator delete.
(DELETE FTW!)
but after 45-50 his V6 kicked in -______-
we both used our paddle shifters bc we thought it would be fair for both of us.
V4 vs V6...close race thou.

Lol...my parents were the same way man. If you don't know Asian parents, if a company was once crap, it will always be crap. No matter who says what. It's the reason I'm not in a Evo X or a STi.

naw the F-sport doesnt have quads.
i believe thats exclusive to the ISF
the IS 250 F-Sport is an IS250 with a F front lip, F logo, and a ISF intake

lol i guess i'll be the one to say this.

don't race on the street no matter how empty you think it is.

i understand being young and having the urge to just have fun (i do too) but unexpected sht happens and its better to be safe than sorry, i mean its not like you had even the slightest chance against the gen coupe anyways in the first place, so why bother lol

and yeah...tsx = good DD, but not a fast car in anyway

I took some Chinese-american friends of mine car shopping recently because they were looking at the Mercedes ML and BMW X5. They are super frugal people though so I suggested the MDX... I can't believe how anti-Honda they were :P I did convince them the Acura would be a good decision but they bought used from CarMax. I hope it was well taken care of before and gives them a good experience overall.

That being said, I don't think TSX is a good racecar. I think its quick, which is good for passing, merging, and making turns across traffic...thats it though.

F1SH, if there's one thing we can advise you, like Mr_NC said, don't pull a Modesto. NEVER pull a Modesto.

lol I considered a gen coupe when I was buying my car but after driving it, realized I don't need all that power and harsh ride for a DD. Not to mention, getting in and out of the back seat was like a failed segment from Cirque de Soleil.

harsh ride? really?

when i test drove the 12' 3.8 coupe the ride wasn't harsh at all. mind u i live in LA, where the roads could eat up your suspensions. As for the back seats...I agree wdf.
