He should "shop around" a bit...

You just suggested like 4 cars that are triple the cost of what he's looking at...

IMO lexus' drive like machine's instead of cars... I've NEVER liked a lexus I drove (never driven an IS though).
The S4 is cool and all but the gears make it silly to drive... they're just too short.
I HATE benzs'... they're luxury cars.. pretentious one's at that... I know they're good and all but they're WAY WAY overpriced and just bling bling to impress people imo.

Besides the rediculously expensive payments on cars like that they all generally have high insurance premiums too... a waste imo.

back on topic

I wouldn't buy your car (no offense). I don't think you'd get much money for it seeing as...
A. they don't have very good resale as a PERFECT mint fully loaded car.
B. People don't like buying modded cars (especially heavily modded)
C. You haven't been driving it long so people would assume something's about to go bad and you know it.

HOWEVER... if you put it on ebay some F'tard might end up paying lots of money for something that's already done... you never know... just set a reserve so you don't sell it for less than you want.

As far as the S-er... I wouldn't get a new gen one... I'd get like a 91-93... they're SICK... they have the sr20de motor in them... just waiting for a t...

If you pick up the dec. issue of turbo magazine they have their project ser in there and it's REDICULOUS... they just put straight cut gears, a nismo lsd, and some nasty axels in it.

They make LOTS of stuff for that motor and it has TREMENDOUS capabilies... WAY WAY more than the 2.4 imo.

what series engine is the spec v anyway... isn't it just the k24 bottom end with a better head/technology?

If so I'd go for the smaller lighter better handleing 2.0 gen ser... they are SICK...
