yes we get the IS300 - but it is lacking a manual gearbox.

The Supercharged IS200 has around 200-220 bhp, the IS300 has 211.

Generally, your better off turbo-charging the IS300, there are more options, and you get a better return (can reach 400bhp easily)

Ah, I see.

We get a manual 5 speed IS300 here, except for the IS300 4 door hatch, which is manumatic only.

3.0 is 215 bhp here.

Surprised that the 2.0 has as much as 200 and the 3.0 is so low. It seems almost redundant to sell them both. I suppose the 3.0 is going to have the edge on torque, but still...

There are rumors circulating of an IS350 in the works. I think it's inevitable.

I think they should make an M-power fighter IS with the 4.3 liter V8 from the larger Lexus in it. I know one was made as a prototype or study of some kind. Saw it on the 'net a while back.

IS430... now that would put some fear into the Germans!

200 was the Supercharged IS200, as standard its 154bhp..

yep, TTE built a IS430, but unfortunatly it will never see the light of day, as it was more to test the V-engine, as the new IS250 is a V6.

There are rumours about the IS350, nothing confirmed, but we will never get a M3 killer unfortunatley

The new IS super engine (3 litre or whatever it is can't remember) still isn't confirmed. But I will have tickets to our local IS250 launch!

Ah, I see.

Too bad about the V6. I've always liked the I6 format. IMO it's the smoothest running layout for a motor. Something about it just seems to keep all the reciprocating mass in check and it just hums sweetly. V's just aren't the same I'm afraid, though the Subaru and Porsche flat 6's are closer.

Sounds like my reputation still proceeds me!!!

Came on here to see if I could find you mate, you beat me!!!

I was miles away sat at that roundabout when I looked across and saw the TOC logo so had to follow you - thought it was Jaxx at first!!

Nice car pal, sounds well :)

Sounds like I'll never live down that tent incident - it was ale - honest :whistling:

No idea how bad I'll be this year, I'm in practice already, 14 of the last 16 nights have been spent out on the beer, absolutely knacked now :sick:

Will probably see you around town again soon pal :)
