Can anyone help clear this up - years and years ago (1999 I'd say) I got in a little duel with a Lexus IS. The car I was in had a 0-60 time of 7.5 seconds, and I gave it full stick through second and third gear on a rolling start. But I couldn't shake the Lexus!
Given that is was a new car it wasn't likely to be modded, so must it have been an IS300 or could it have been an IS200?
On paper there's no way the 200 could compete, having a 0-60 time of 9.5 seconds, but are they just slow off the mark? Once they're moving and you're in the power do they feel quicker than the 0-60 time?
P.S. This was on a dual carriageway so I wasn't breaking any speed limits!
