Hello fellow opponauts, long time no see. I just bought my first car in the shape of a late ‘05 Lexus IS 2 50 with a manual gearbox and 100k miles on the clock. Any suggestions as to what to do to make it better sounding and performing?

Thank you

this is coming from a guy with a AWD IS 250.

better performing? sell it and buy a IS 350 :)

do the maintenance, throw in a good sound system if you want, and enjoy it for what it is.

Si bun ca mai vad si eiu un roman pe aice :) Unde in Ro esti? Inca am famila in Onesti.

I cannot get the 350 because of the huge taxes.

Now that you have a car you can out-perform and out-sound the rest of u s during the Euro oppomeet, less than 3 weeks from now. In Eastern France. We still have space, but I do realize it’s not exactly next door from Romania...

Any mod you do to significantly improve performance will be like $3k. Supercharger or Turbo combined with an exhaust and tune.

Or you could get a IS350 and tune it.

Congratulations! I’d just enjoy it as is honestly. If it’s your first car it’ll be fun no matter what really. It’s cool it’s he manual too!
