Just wandered really, as i was talking to my Dad this weekend, and one of his corporate associates was looking at the IS300 a while back, but was put off by the fact that it was an auto, and there was no option for a manual box. And as a result, the custom was lost to BM*.

It started me thinking about it tho, is it actually possible to get an IS300 with a manual box on it, or could one be added? :unsure:

One for the tech peeps me thinks!

only a 5 speed? would have thought that it would have had a 6 speed box the same as the 200 does.

would there be any fitment issues if one of those manual boxes were to be fitted to a UK car then?

Ok bud, just wild speculation on my part really, curiosity killed the cat and all that! :D

Anyone care to offer an opinion on this?

the automatic ecu would not work with a manual car.

i was able when i orderd the white car toi make a special order from Japan of a UK spec manual IS300, however!, Lexus GB would not issue a CoC for the car if i did it, and i would have the bring the car over as a personal import Duty and tAX FREE.

Seemed like 2 much bother
