As long I sukak.

Why should I find a 120% perfect analogy to entertain you or convince you? Its not like I have the obligation to convince you to think otherwise etc. Not like the money or the final decision is decided by me anyway.

Bodoh.

I apologize also, in case me cari pesal too much.

Usually I just grab an item and do example straightway, if it wasn't important matter or crucial. Because I more or less let people do their own thinking instead of me go GOOGLE and settle all brain-damaging stuff then only suap these stuff to fellow K-tards.

I am not a nanny, nor a paid butler. I don't have obligation to feed them all the sauces just because the fish n chips I serve is dried or greasy as hell.

But if its important stuff, I often reply properly, to avoid misunderstanding.

For that budget and purpose, go look for a used E46/E90 with 1JZ fully done up. Save time, save hassle and suit your use case.

Big fat sedans aren't really pocket friendly for drifting. Plus the 1JZ has plenty of torque down low, so its easier to initiate slides especially if you're new to the sport

Same. Bought w205 instead of lexus. Bodo. After w205 next time hard to maintain, definitely sell it for RX. Back then /k said lexus is glorified toyota. Damn stupid to listen these guys.

It'd OK, can still sell the Merc. Dulu C205 was the standard but engine damn slow to pick up, still ok for unker image. IS300 like young man car..for dreaming onli.

Drifting is one of the many reasons I opt for this car.
Initially thought the same but always hear Toyota > Honda in term of reliability. Besides, previously, lexus original price was almost tripled than accordana. I supposed it would be more premium.
Got one old school car already. Need to find a decent ride tongue.gif
Hopefully not. Need to thoroughly test the car :hmmm+
Sometimes got 30~38k. Why that altezza so expensive?

Altezza expensive cos jdm and rare in Msia. Especially the on with 2JZ engine.

Finally an is250 user thumbup.gif
Can share why not recommended for city drive? My current daily driver already a fuel guzzler (12l/100km) sweat.gif so for fc, more or less the same. Anything else to be wary about?

How much you want to sell your ride? tongue.gif

sure or not proton saga 1.5 drink so much?
carb need tuning?

12l/100km is roughly what IS250 use for combine city driving.

It's a 1.3 sweat.gif. Carb need servicing and most likely distributor too.

Typically I get 10l/km previously city driving
