This Tuesday at 9pm, "Rides" on TLC will show the making of the "IS430". A stock IS300 with a V8 dropped into it. Rod Millen does this transformation, which was/is actually being used as the prototype for the IS430 (which we've heard about for years now).

Posted by: MySlowGrandCherokee on February 4, 2004 2:03 PMNot me. I like the GS, but like the IS better.
