Titan vs. IS350

docweedon · 07-28-2006, 04:11 PM

A friend of mine has an Lexus IS350. He is talking mad **** about killing my Titan. Would my Titan take an IS350?
All I have is a Drop in K&N fliter.

I'd say a Titan w/ a few mods could beat it

Let us know how it turns out.

Them IS350 are fast plus a weight advantage. Lexus is releasing an IS 500 in the near future. M5 killer.

I'd say have him u give a 1-2 truck jump to cover the power/weight difference and u guys should match up evenly.

That's the most elequent way I have ever heard anyone say.... you'll lose.... LOL

These trucks are really fast but in today's horsepower race there are a lot of vehicles that are faster.... sorry to say

I rode in a buddies IS350 very quick with the weight difference I personally think you will get it handed to you. But you won't know until you try.

The IS350 is a screamer. I drove one when they first came out, and with 300 or so horsepower, 6 spd auto, and a light car, it rocks. I think it turns 60 in the mid to high 5's. Good luck, but I think that car would walk away from a Titan.

Hate to say it ,but a Is350 will murder a titan.
It has a direct injected V6 rated at 306 horsepower and does 0 to 60 in
5.6 sec.

Just race him anyway for the heck of it.

You don't stand a chance....sorry. You're driving a 5000 LB TRUCK.

The Titan can pull that thing, have him load it on a trailer....

Has nothin to do with a 5k pound truck. My last 5k truck turned 1/4 way faster then the titan.

It does nto have the HP it takes to make this 5k truck move fast.

Everything pretty much comes down to the power to weight ratio... Of course, there are some other considerations but 90+% of the time the vehicle with a higher ratio will win...

Take motorcycles for example... a cheap POS cycle will kick the crap out of most any car.... even though it's only got 80hp... it weighs 1/10 as much as a car.... It's just physics.
