    Just picked up mine. Same color with the red interior. Pictures and videos don't do justice on how good this car looks in person. The red interior looks brighter during day light and dark red during night time which is nice. I upgraded from a 2008 4 cylinder camry. The power in this thing is phenomenal you don't need anymore of it.

    If you're going to spend $ on a supercharger for this 350 for more HP if that's really your thing, might as well get the IS500.

      And it's an aspirated motor which means less moving parts and cheaper to fix, you don't want to add a supercharger or turbo. I would just add Intake and exhaust and move on.

    Great review. This was a very refreshing review. A lot of people tend to hate on the interior & speed. You saw the beauty of the inside by comparing it to similarly spec’d cars, and saw the convenience of how everything you need is right there in front of you. I own this car and I agree with everything you mentioned in your review. I’ll be looking forward to seeing more content from you 👌

    This thing looks sharp and the red interior looks super baller despite it being a little dated by today’s standards. I feel like even with those things in mind this is still a solid buy. Also regarding what you mentioned about the supercharger and not having a lot of options to modify I think a proper tune and maybe an intake I already good enough to give it a bit more character and keep the comfort level in check

      Every 3.5 L I looked up with FBO made around 300 to 310 at the wheels. They really only make like 250 to 270 to the wheels factory. So if your truck is making 360 it’s probably crank HP my guess. You should throw it on the Dyno and see!

      @@LowBoostFilms I have to say I agree with you. When I test drove the 2024 BMW 230, i was surprised how quick it was considering it is just the 4 cylinder b48 engine and felt a little faster then IS350. My only concern is the reliability with BMW as you always hear how they start falling off after 30k miles. I never owned a BMW but really considering getting one but still undecided to get the 230 or the IS350.
