Now wait a sec.... ....you said you didn't get an IS300 because it was "sloooow", yet you got an Accord instead..... . That means you DEFINETLY weren't looking for speed then, right?

Until just recently, Lexus were NEVER designed with speed/power in mind. They were designed for a totally different reason. So maybe you just expected the wrong trait when you were car shopping. Kinda like looking for an easy lay at a Billy Graham revival.....just aint the right place even if they have the right equipment.....

stock for stock, i test drove both and the accord v6 was by far faster. the is300 was pretty nice inside and out, but the engine was noticeably slower. why don't you go to a honda dealership and test drive a brand new 06/07 accord v6 6mt and tell me it's "slow" or even an auto for that matter. it's definitely faster than the is300. now, i will admit that the accord is no dazzler in the looks department. also, the insurance is cheaper, maintenance is cheaper, engine is more powerful, and it's newer. it's not like i'm going racing in my car lol. as soon as i finish graduate school, i will definitely be trading in this accord for an is350 or whatever they have by then. it'll be more financially feasible for me.

Accord = slow (no matter what year or model).

Sorry pal, but you're comparing apples to jumbo jets.

In 06 and 07 there were no IS300's, only IS350's. Now you wanna compare again??? I doubt it. So if you want to compare Honda's 06 V6 then compare it to an 06 Lexus V6, which we all know what the outcome of that is.

A 240hp V-6 Accord is a tad bit quicker than a 215hp IS 300. IS 300 was never that fast stock, 0-60 in low 7s with the auto and 6.9 with the manual and mid 6s with the L-tuned mods. Its better in twisties though, the handling was described as good if not better than a 3 series at the time.

Hope to see you in a Lexus soon!
