I think that's a little too much on a Lexus. It's nice, and would probably look phat on another car, just not that one.

Just my $.02 [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

d00d i usually not big on graphics but those look really nice on the IS, I used to want one, but now I would definitely take a BMW 330ci over the is 300.

OMG THATS SO RICE IT GOT STICKERS ALL OVER AND ALTEZZAS!!! OMG ALTEZZAS ARE SO G-H-E-Y!!!

lol.. actually, i kinda like it... its a little obnoxious, but those cars do need something to stand out a bit more...

though if mine had stickers like that, i'd make sure it had the supra twin-turbo under the hood.

Youre kidding right? I think he's kidding, the reason theyre called Altezzas is because that the Japanese Name for the IS300 kind alike Integra is the Japanese name for the RSX, and this is the car that started this ricey fad, respect the lex.

The altezza is the name of one of a Toyota model sold in Japan, Its sold here as a Lexus, I don't know which. Anyways, the tail lights are so named after the car. They come standard on the IS300. Sorry to take you to school like that.

okay enough flaming... yeah its a nice car but if it was mine, i'd take off the graphics and slap on a turbo. unlike the new civic, the IS has several turbo kits for sale that produce good results.

HOLY SHIAT, YOU PEOPLE ARE STUPID.

this is the SECOND time i made a post making fun of the "altezzas" on an altezza/is200/is300... and yet AGAIN, we have "SENIOR MEMBERS" that took it seriously.

as if the post wasn't obnoxious enough to give you a hint?! RETARDS!

for some reason, i'm drawn to it. i can't explain this feeling . . . ha ha. IS300/Altezza is the first and ONLY car to actually look good with altezza (um, euro, um, clear, um, whatever) lights on it. and those graphics are cool, too much for me though. black IS300 is the way to go, IMO anyway.

the 5-speed (stick) starts at $29,000... fully loaded with the 5-speed e-shift (auto), heated leather seats, moonroof, limited-slip diff., and VSC, runs about $34,000 (US).

build your lexus - and surprisingly, they don't offer the flaming "lexus" graphics package as an option on the site... guess you'll have to check the dealer [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

edit: ...and the s2000 is $33,000, according to hondacars.com (there aren't any options for the s2000). hmmm... if i had the money, that would be a damn tough choice... rare, fast-as-hell convertible? or a fairly quick sedan i can drive all year-round?

...or keep saving money for an M5?!

I like the flames. I don't really like the "LEXUS" but I think it would be missing something without it... Unless the flames were shortened.
I always liked the IS300. But I think it is a bit spendy for what you actually get performance-wise.
