The IS looks great for a sedan, but the G coupe looks better. 
The overall lines are so much better and smooth. I have owned '01 IS300 before and loved it, but stock for stock, G beats IS300 in just about every way. With GTE though, IS should be a beast... I always wanted a boosted IS but I kinda gave up on that as I couldn't find one I like for sale. Good luck with your car boostintt but stop trolling! Of course we like our own cars better than yours... If that wasn't the case, we would all be IS owners.

the G35 TT will certainly destroy the IS300TT, because the vvti 2JZ-GTE will only put down about 300 rwhp and 245 TQ, according to Turbo Magazine article that installed the same engine in an SC300 a few years ago...in STOCK trim...so, unless you up the boost or put on a single turbo, then the G35, which would have what? 420 rwhp ish? will destroy the IS300....just the reality of it...

but unless the IS300 has 430 rwhp, then the TT G35 will win easy....

I guess should be interesting then all said and done...both cars will be nice...
