Okay, the Lexus LF-A, but it's the same thing really!

I love the (current) first comment under that story:
"Damn!! Looks Like I'm gonna have to go with the much better looking Subaru B9 Tribeca Special Edition."

Looks like the twisted offspring of a celica and RX-8.

I was considering the old IS200 a couple years ago - I liked the looks (but not the rear light clusters particularly), I liked the dash (but not the interior as a whole) - until I drove it. Sluggish. Bland. Uninspiring.

Then I got myself a 156 sw.
Rest?
History...

around here there are about half a dozen IS200's that have been chavved to hell, all driven by muppets who have moved on from the ubiquitous 3 series BMW

the main reason why i would not look at one now
