well its that annual time again..
james is thinking about getting rid of the IS....
james's ish is paid off... james is tired of getting unwanted attention by cops, kids, ricers,etc
james is hopefully in line for a nice compensation for being a slave at work.
what should james do? should james keep the IS and turbo? knowing i dont drive my car as much as everyone else so i cant enjoy it on a regular basis plus james's piss poor knowledge of cars...plus i dont drive fast i drive crazy..
james likes the new IS but james' pops looking to get the 250 awd so having a 350 would be kinda redundant...except for the power and the fact i cant do anything to the 250 cuz it isn't james'.
james wants to learn to drive stick but doesnt have access to a stick car so james' next option would be to keep the IS and buy a beater car. which leads to what beater car should james buy?
james also wouldnt mind an upgrade in car as well granted if james can afford it (ie: manhattan rent, manhattan drinking, manhattan/brooklyn herb)
so james is asking for the help of his NE brethern to guide him in his crazy ways yet again... any serious suggestions will be considered.. those fucking around will catch one when james sees that person next..
james needs sleep now cuz he was nothing but drunk and sleepless while in london..

James should boost his IS, it will be much faster than the new IS350. If James has a piss poor knowledge of cars, there are plenty of resources (i.e. howstuffworks.com for starters and thousands of books).

james' knowledge isnt so piss poor but would rather have people who know more deal and james will nicely compensate.
james doesn't deal in the matters of hp and how fast because comparing hp is not a priority in james' mindset. james' opinion on hp is more of a matter of comparing who has the smaller penis...no one really gives a fuck and honestly there are better arguments in this world to waste mental power.
james has had the dream of one day boosting his current IS but over the years and reading about all kinds of potential issues that could come up, james doesnt want to deal with that especially since james doesnt drive that much nor that fast. james' IS hasnt even broken the 50k miles milestone yet and james has owned his car for 4 yrs..
james cares a lot about reliability and if you can see by james' persona and the way his car looks james needs to have some style.

James should keep his IS, stay stock or install NA mods. If James wants more than NA mods, then James should go SC for reliability. :cool:

IMO.. James should keep the IS since it is paid for already, use the extra cash he has to buy a property in nyc so he doesn't waste money on rent, find a nice 'pinay' to share his mortgage with, make sure she can cook and clean, that way James doesn't have to spend money going out to eat ALL the time, in turn.. James has more MONEY for booze and James is happy w/ an IS still.

James hears what you say brother Eric..oh James hears it well...
as far as property in nyc...James ain't making that much to be able to drop for property in nyc...James' IS would be gone and James would have to live off of the Metrocard for the rest of his life and James doesnt like that. James needs to drive.
If James can find a "nice" Pinay to share the mortgage with James would cook and clean for James' womens..when James wants to James will pamper James' queen whoever fortunate woman that may be in the future.
but at this point James isn't ready to settle and have another leash on James' neck (work just gave James one with the shackleberry).
James' guess as to why James is thinking about this is maybe James is getting tired of James' IS and maybe James is ready to move on. James only has a few years to pimp before James has to settle down make little James's to continue the drunken debachery that James has started in society.

Ok.. then James needs to take a ride in BDR's or Avi's boosted IS and then decide. I bet James will have a BIG smile on his face and any doubts about his IS will disappear, at least for the day.
If James wants, I can provide help with the mortgage loan. My dad is a home loan officer/mortgage specialist. It's in James interest to buy now instead of renting.
James should also drive his IS to New Brunswick so James can have fun with the ladies in the IS.

James already got a ride in my car and filmed me race...he knows what a 450 RWHP IS300 feels like....;)
He knows what to do, and drop it off at TurboEast

james should look at his age, and his future. yes, i actually said that. look beyond today. the is300 is paid for - dont sell it. you would lose. keep it. even if you dont do any further mods, keep it. save money to buy a house, or own some property in manhattan. if you have the cash, and need, boost the is300. you dont use it often, so it would make sense that you shouldnt run into many problems. in my opinion, you dont need/want 1000 hp, so id go supercharged just to have the power, and have the reliability as well. as far as a beater, whats the point? you live in ny city. why pay for storage of the car, gas, insurance, etc. you have public trans. use it to your advantage. if you want to learn stick, and are serious, ill gladly let you use my car and learn(with me of course). just be liable for any damage if youre realyl that bad at it(my dog could drive a stick).
cliffs notes of my BS above: keep the is300, dont buy a new car, save money for your future.

James has taken all opinions so far to heart. And James is still torn.
On the day James is not working, finally, James will be at Lexus of Manahattan looking into a 350.
Property in NYC would be good if James knew he would be able to afford it. Plus with James working in an industry where anything can happen. James doesn't want to be locked into something like a mortgage unless James knows he will be staying at one place for a long time.
James has had the honor of riding in BDR, Avi's and Marc's former car and boost is nice. But James' feeling is why spend the money on Grey Goose, when drinking Stoli does the same damage? Or why be picky about who you go out with, one can just split the bill get her drunk and dump her in a cab.

If James' dad is getting the 250, then there is no point for James to get the 350. James can still be a pimp in the 250.. and besides James will have a hard time modding the new IS since the ecu is a nazi! It will throw a code if you take the wheels off. However, you can order an HKS exhaust from the stealership.
James will be better off keeping the IS he has now since it is paid for already.

James had the honor of test driving a 250 AWD today at Lexus of Manhattan.
James likes. James will recommend this to James' father for purchase and James will most likely decide on the next ride that James will pimp soon...
James never said that James would limit James' self to just Lexus and the IS350/250. James asks for all of your wise opinions as to what you would see James ride in for the next few years.
Keeping the Is is still in the mind of James but who knows? James dont know what the future may bring.
Help James out. James will do the same for you.

What kind of car are you looking for? Coupe, sedan, rwd, awd, price range?
whitetezza
10-22-2005, 03:28 AM
James likes the sport sedans
James likes the GS but last generations, Infiniti M is nice, maybe a used 5 series
James likes the coupes too
E46 M3, E36 coupes, G35c, old supras rx7 if James could find one..
James also doesnt like subis, the hondas (although James would consider getting one as a project car to fuck with)
James isnt sure about the price range of James' spending. If James upgrades a decent used car would suffice.
But James realized something tonight after going out... James likes to drink...
And James does like the IS James owns..so James may keep the car... for now.
Keep giving James suggestions though if the right one comes along James may actually go through with it.

James finds threats very unappealing.
James sees Willie's rant on the G35c. James will take that with a grain of salt because James isn't the douchebag Willie is. And James knows how much bad luck Willie has on whatever Willie drives.
James does like San Miguel but only with chicharron bulaklak which equals instant heart and liver failure for James.

Hey wsup James, haven't seen u out and about at any of the meets recently. As for your problem seriously just keep the IS for now since it's all paid off and save up some funds for maybe a future car, or maybe even boosting the IS at a later time. As for the 350 ya its a nice car but like what Eric says your pops is getting the 250 so it's kinda pointless to get the 350. Maybe get a beater bubble like Betty's old car and learn to drive stick around the city in that, cheap on gas, very mod friendly (if u choose to), and you wont have to worry about it parked outside in the city.

James has been pre-occuped with James' career leading to James' potential promotion and in turn making James' pockets fatter.
A beater car for James would be nice. If so what beater should James get?
James doesnt worry about city parking because as all of you already knows James does not have a car in the city which is why James doesn't come out to meets on weekdays and Friday nights. Also why James bitches about meets and doesnt like it when others bitch about meets when others have their car at their disposal unlike James does.

James asks of my fellow NE brethern another question.
James has decided to keep James' IS. But James is looking out for a potential beater as well. Maybe and older M3, to mess with. James also wouldnt mind finding some beaters to turn to a drift car one day. James has lots of imagination and doesn't feel like putting that into the IS anymore. James needs help. Help him please...
