... it had been nearly three weeks since I had driven my car. It felt so amazing and LOW after driving around my tC for weeks... I think I've fallen in love all over again!  |

I'd say based on this, it will be more of a "swift" cruise than our usual speed. |
So funny enough, I decided to take my IS out on Redwood after lunch today as well, for my own little recon. Almost the inverse of what Drew said, driving the Lexus makes me appreciate the BRZ and MR2 that much more hahaha. I have RE11s on the IS so it sticks fairly well in the corners. But the driving experience pales in comparison to a real sports car. The heft of the body, the body roll, the slippery unbolstered leather seats, these are all conspiring against you and make it uncomfortable to go fast. Add the fact that it's an automatic and it just makes me not want to take this car out to these roads when i have much better weapons at hand. Soooo... I will probably show up in the MR2 tomorrow.
