At the Chicago auto show, the Lexus rep told me they are making a 2dr hardtop and convertible model of the IS that will have 300hp and RWD. The vert is likely what I will replace the celi with someday if its nice.

Reminds me kinda of the M5... the bottom 1/2 of the front bumper... I really hope the actual car doesn't look exactly like that.
Anyway... more than likely the new IS series will all run the New GR series V6 engines, currently found in the Avalon 3.5 with dual VVTi and in the Taco trucks (4.0)... Sad thing... these were designed as truck engines and just turned out to be really flexible... now they're gonna get circulated a bit. Won't feel much like a sporty car anymore... -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
1995 AT200 Celica ST: stocked out daily driver... 1984 AE86 Corolla GT-SR5: silvertop 20V 4AGE project car jacked up with goodies... 1991 SW2x MR2 n/a: bare bones hardtop model soon to be... |
