I responded to you thinking it was the last post in the thread. I see the comparison was already made.

I own a 1st gen IS300 and what I always find odd is how Toyota managed to get it down to 3250lbs considering it has that monster iron block 2JZ in it. It doesn't lack sound deadening, it has airbags all over the place, it has a nice interior, RWD, minimal use of aluminium, ect, ect. Where did they manage to compensate for that 750lbs engine? Oh and it wasn't a high priced tag car either. Even in it's day it was light considering the engine.
