5speed manual versus a 5speed automatic...manual should still win out...whats your point here? Mine is an auto and I took him out BAD. Yes the IS300 comes with 215HP...very slow which we stated and hence me whooping one...no big deal.

I think he meant in comparison to a 6 speed though it's a bizarre comment given how the ratio of the G. That sixth gear wouldn't really do you much good on the G in a typical lineup in traffic. On the track you might be able to get up above 100, but fifth will take you that far on its own.
I doubt it would make much of a difference.
