2002 Max compared to a 2002 IS 300??

What kind of speed advantage does the Max have on the IS 300?? This little rich kid whose parents just bought him a 2002 Is300 thinks he could take my 2002 GLE Max........

? Im thinking I could take him.

If you guys are racing stock to stock 2k2 auto and 2k1 is. I'm pretty damn sure Ull smoke his ***. My 2k1 auto with 2 Jl audio 12 inch subs rolling on 18's beat a Blue Is. We raced from a roll about 10-20 mph up to 88-90. It was at first pretty even. The i started pulling and then he started pulling, but once i hit like 75ish-80 i started pulling on him. Race him up to like 100 or 120 or something. Pretty freaking sure you will if its stock to stock. Good Luck. Hope u beat the **** out of that little Is mother f***er

The IS has a much better foundation. That thing handles much better than the Max. Power is down but not huge. Turbo kits are available.
