    boooo no bikes in my thread


    its the Fearless 'CAR' thread for a reason


    and a good condition NSX is like 40 G, unless i get a super old one lol. id still rather have my lexus cuz its better for year round driving. A NSX would be a great summer car though.

    this is an awesome pic.. really shows the contrast between a good looking car like the IS, and an absolutely sick looking car like the porsche

    The new ones are too ugly and I would not want to pay 30g's for a hatchback:

    i was into STi's for a while, but the ride is just too hard for everyday driving. the interior is spartan as hell too, for 35G US or 48 G canadian all you really get is the crazy engine and AWD system.

    its too much of a toy and not enough of a car.

    that said, if you were to buy a good one second hand, it could be alot of fun, but i'd never buy one brand new.

    who uses manual transmission now anyway >.< lolz lots of automatic cars have sport shift >.<

    fearless_fx Eugooglizer

    lol sport shift is still a joke in alot of mid range cars. the paddle shifters in the IS are terrible, i was driving an AWD and pushing it to the limit in the corners and it would just not downshift when i wanted it to. id hit the down paddle like 4 times and it would still take like 2 seconds to go down a gear.

    a gearshift and a clutch is still the best way to go if you love driving.

    you're way too ignorant about driving dude :p you should get a license before you comment on this stuff.

    im still looking at the IS fearless... argh

    i want the sports model but with leather seats... ahahah
    but i dun want sports luxury cos its auto >.<

    plus the sports is nice cos its comes with 8 and 8.5" wide wheels as stock
    means that legally, i can get up to 10" and 10.5" wide rims =P
    (well not exactly legally, but at least insurance covers it, insurance rules and legal issues totally different lol)

    the standard only comes with 6.5 or 7" wide rims ><
    *sigh*

    where m i gonna get 100k to get a IS ><
    lottoooooo
    lemme win!!! hahaha

    i wonder how much the IS would cost in china for you?

    they cant be too bad, so many people drive IS's and GS's in Macao, just look at this pic of a meet there... crazy amount of lexuses

    [​IMG]


    edit:

    435,000 RMB, lol so 59 grand CAN

    but its an IS300 in china, not an IS250 or IS350... the engine outputs near 300 HP, and its completely loaded with all options, so its not that bad of a deal.

    hmm... would you spend 150 dollars for some string?

    [​IMG]

    i want these Junction Produce kintuna (the big knot) and fusa (the tassles) quite badly... but together they cost an arm and a leg cuz junction produce is essentially japanese Gucci for cars lol

    i can't justify the price atm, but these beasties are likely gonna be sitting in the corner of my mind forever until i will probably have to give in and buy them lol

    well its more of...
    assume i get car here
    would i really want to drive it here
    and park it on the streets?

    it'd get scratched n dented n spat on n polluted >.<
    lol
     
  17. fearless_fx

    fearless_fx Eugooglizer

    the pollution is true, you'd probably have to clean your air intake filter every couple months lol

    and i can definitely see old chinese people seeing a young guy getting out of his lexus, waiting till he is gone and then keying and spitting on the car. (although, if you look like you could be a triad member, they might stay away :p)

    fearless_fx Eugooglizer

    ^ im hoping i don't get run over by crazy ass chinese drivers. i was reading an article in the New Yorker about how insane drivers are in china.. apparently people drive the same way they walk, in groups and extremely packed together.

    lol and what near misses?
