4534, wanna sell the 2gnt and get an is300
Posted by fauchpj, Mar-02-06 08:39 AM
alright ive had the car since november 98 and im done with college, got a real job, and tired of having a 10 year old car.

what do you guys think of the is300? ive also looked at the tsx, but it seems a little too girly and not aggressive compared to the is300. opinons? any owners out there?

check out the new IS. VERY nice. I like it a lot. It's not an 1S300 anymore. theres a 250 and a 350.

You're going to reward yourself with another used car?

I really like the new G35... My dad bought a '05 with 5k miles on it for 30k and it's a great car, the automatic transmission in it shifts extremely cleanly and quickly. If I was to buy one I would get the coupe with a 6 speed.

Good luck finding an is300 with a stick shift I dont think they started making them in 5 speed until 03. Also I drove a TSX and loved it almost bought it too. I would look into one of those, but then again I wasnt impressed with the motor too much, a luxury car shouldnt have a 4cyl and exhaust seemed tinny to me.
