The second roll we did again - as you saw there was a mis shift which can happen sometimes. The owner did very well for a 6 speed. A 10 speed would potentially be right beside the IS500 from a dig.

I think the issue with the IS 500 in the first roll race is that if it isn't already in the lowest possible gear it will not downshift all the way to it in auto when you just gun it while cruising along, even if it's in sport s+ mode. It's the main reason people complain about the transmission in that car, because it does everything else so well.

The Lexus is cheaper than most of the newer trucks you see on any construction site. Edit: In two years once the current car market crashes this Lexus will be a bargain. I agree the current car market is high but under normal circumstances this car should be at least $10k cheaper.

@@01gtbdaily30 If you graduated high school there is also no reason not to know the difference between "your" and "you're." According to Experian the "average" 25-34 year old also carries almost $80k in debt. Your definition of "afford" and mine are apparently different. Paying the car off in cash whenever you feel like it is being able to "afford" it. Struggling to keep up the payment each month to keep up appearances? Not so much...
@01gtbdaily302 жыл бұрын
@@sidefx996 well if you want to critique my grammar you would see that I used the proper “you’re” but I forgot a word while typing quickly. Both versions of the word are now included to make you feel better . It’s also ironic that you made a spelling mistake while being very judgemental about mine. I’m sure the end of your comment was supposed to say “Not So Much “ but you wrote “No so much” but I’m not an asshole who will point that out. Secondly , even very wealthy people don’t buy everything in cash and saying you only buy what you can pay for in cash just means you can’t afford a car loan or have bad credit. I assume you will never buy a house because you only buy what you can “pay cash for” . Elon Musk who is one of the richest men in the world secured a loan in his purchase agreement for Twitter. The way most people look at affordability is if their money into their bank monthly is more than their money out of their bank monthly. My wife and I make enough that we each have our own car loan and share a mortgage . We never have to “struggle” to pay our car loans or mortgage because we are adults and have what’s called a “savings account” which holds our extra money we have saved aside from our retirement fund.
@sidefx9962 жыл бұрын
@@01gtbdaily30 Well I'll certainly agree with you on how most people view "affordability." Problem is if they miss just one paycheck their mortgage (or rent) and car payment will be past due. That may not be YOU (or I) but you know it's plenty of other people who can "afford" the payment. I do own a house and I see owning my home in cash as more important, which it will be in just a couple more years. I also view it important that if I wake up in the morning and want to tell my job to fuck off that I can sit on my ass and grow a giant beard wrenching in the garage for at least the next year and still comfortably pay my bills and everyone can kiss my ass. That's more important to me also than an IS500 payment. I wasn't referring to you directly but I guess you (and most other people) and I have differing views on the definition of "average" and "affordable." Again I can promise you that the average person who graduated high school with a job in their 30's can't comfortably (at least in my view) afford an IS500. I work a second job on the side for someone exactly like that. Garage and driveway full of nice vehicles , expensive house constantly getting remodeled and expensive fishing boat. Wife with rich friends. Yeah he can "afford" it but he's always a nervous wreck who makes monthly payments on EVERYTHING and hasn't had a good night's sleep in decades.

@@norwegianblue2017 14.2 ? Try 12.4 bud. We know EXACTLY which cars are being raced - a Mustang GT with a manual transmission and a Lexus IS500. They couldn't possibly be more equally matched on paper, which is why this comes down to a driver's race. They're a tenth of a second off eachother's times, so it's literally down to who gets the best launch and hits their shifts most perfectly. Furthermore, while it is easier to drive the IS500 in a straight line, you do have to shift manually with the paddles to get the most performance out of it, which is exactly what Sam said after the runs.

@@norwegianblue2017 Car and Driver measured the IS500 at 12.8 seconds in the quarter. Other mags have seen times as low as 12.4 seconds. I don't know which year or model you looked up, but V6-powered IS350s were running faster times than 14.2 back in 2007. This is an IS500. They're powered by 470 horsepower V8s. Check your sources.
