420HP? Wow..so much for Japan's attempt to avoid a HP war. I think Lexus finally caved and is trying to compete with Mercs and BMW power lol.

*edit: nvm it says it's supposed to take on the M3 a Merc AMG in the link...lol.

Spec wise I think its right from what has been said on the IS boards.
Those pics in the first post though are suppose to be chops!

Id rather see a coupe version of the IS come out first though

I would also like to see a coupe version of the IS. I think their intention is to make a sporty vehicle within their lineup. A sedan will always be somewhat limited in that department as it has 2 extra doors!

I love the IS350 as it is; can't wait to see what they come up with next!!

About time! They already own MB and BMW in terms of short-term & long-term reliability and build quality. NEXT UP... HP and track times.

Sweet! This is the best looking new Lexus yet.

I thought the real IS500 is suppose to be a coupe version of the 250....so there fore 2 doors?

[ProjectR]

lovin the look of the new IS series

[Altezza]

The silver pictures are chopped. The only "real" pics are black at present. Direct from someone I know at Toyota, the HP figures are about right. But it won't be called an IS500 apparently.
