Doubt it will ever happen.

The IS500 ?? That must be some beast. Probably had the engine replaced with some sort of American V8 Mustang engine that breaks down every 50 miles...

Call me stoopid, but I didn't know they done one. What do they put those in ? (and don't say the IS500 !)

Doesn't the Toyota Hilux come in a 5ltr V8?

Haven't got a clue, but that would make sense

Sorry to go slightly , but entry-level "BS" series? Isn't that a bit of a silly acronym to use?

Lets just hope it isn't what it says on the tin!

Getting back on topic...

There will definitely be an IS500 supersaloon model. A mule has already been spotted on the Nordshliefe Ring. And it will be sold in the UK unlike the IS350.

The IS500 will have a developed version of the current Lexus 4.3 V8 engine bored out to to either 4.6 or 5.0 litres. No one is sure which one yet.

I hope it will also have Lexus' excellent AWD system so that the power is fully usable. Whatever expect this car to give the M3 and S4s of this world a good run for their money.
