From Road and Track

Quote:

The Bridgestone Potenza RE050 tires grab hold immediately, and the IS 350 leaps off the line. For our best acceleration runs, we left the transmission in full auto mode, letting the computer perform the upshifts, which it did quickly and smoothly at or near the 6600-rpm redline. The Lexus blasted to 60 mph in 4.9 sec. and to the quarter-mile mark at a blistering 13.5, which bests even the more expensive V-8-powered Audi S4.
The TL-S got a good review also

I believe the 4.9 now, but I still wont' say it's a sport sedan being auto... and on the skidpad. Any RWD car with 300+ hp should be able to step out easily when you want it to.

I just remembered to say that a few weeks ago I smoked a TC off the line, and I'm stock. I wouldn't worry about those guys.

Haha I think this whole thread was devoted to how much TC (and their owners) suck.

ugh, i just remembered the other day. my friend sent me an e-mail asking me if i could ask my friends how much will it cost to install a turbo to his brother's scion tc.

i tried convincing him to just buy a new car. but didn't work. now, i'm afraid to ask my friends mechanics.
