Default My IS300 experence this morning.......

So I'm crusing to work on my normal route and this white IS300 comes zipping
along side of me. It's a two lane road still in the city mind you. He trys to pass
but gets cut off by another car so he fades in behind me and is like right on my bumper another hole opens up on the right and he trys for another pass but yet again gets cut off so he then makes this crazy move at the end of this road
almost smashing into another merging car just to pass me. Is there some Audi
Lexus competeionm I'm not aware of the guy was definately a danger to himself and others on the road.

Be safe out there,

D30

Default Competition?

Actually...there may be...I live in San Francisco which is overrun with IS300s. EVERY TIME I see one (male or female driver) they always have to pass me for some reason....more the guys than anything...I just laugh...downshift and let them watch my taillights. Now normally I don't race..but when I see some A-hole in an IS trying to make his presence known...I have to show him the four rings on my rear hatch....
