Yellow Lexus

[GWtaylor]

Hi ppl just bought my first ever lexus and WOW, my question is

When i bought the car i was told there was only 49 made in YELLOW it comes with a slightly different bodykit to the normal 200 sport. Is this correct and where would i be able to fine what number mine is and what did they make them them was it a promotional thing or something?

Many thanks

Yes, the yellow model was a special edition, known as "The Yellow Rose of Lexus" edition. Not sure exactly how many were made but I think 50 is about right. Your dealer should be able to give you the number.

Nice car, almost bought one myself! :winky:

I understood each Dealership had 1 each & had no trouble selling all of them.

Yellow is a v. common colour in Hong Kong & they drive on the right!

I guess are also some yellow IS200s imported from Europe about. Trade sales in Slough had a yellow IS200 before the limited edition one came out.

i was going to get a yellow is300 instead of the white as a special import through Lexus GB....

under the same special import rules, i tried to get it as a manual, alas they couldnt do it so i went for the white 200 instead, sometimes i wish i had pushed a little harder, as LGB were kinda keen to do it, but was tied up with too much red tape, the money i would have saved getting it tax free, would have covered the ESVA inspection.....alas it never happened

theres a couple of yellow ones on the lexus site now, well there was the other day...

Couple of months ago i was on the M1, I saw one 2doors lexus IS200 with full body kit and it was yellow as well. so beautiful. i wish i can have one like that

IS200 coupe? :duh: :o

[Noel]

Never seen a IS coupe either....but i have seen two Yellow Altezza's for sale here in Ireland in the past year....both were 1998 and one had a turbo.....not up for sale long either......they were asking €23,000+ for the turbo version....ouch

[Joebing]

Altezza I guess maybe just Altezza. but IS and Altezza both are same shape

Wish i new how to update on to the Web and i'd get mine on to show you all. not very good with computers as you can tell

50 official ones were imported (one for each UK Lexus dealer).

I guess a few of the Yellow ones have been crashed/stolen/written off by now?

[Parthiban]

Yep 50 into the UK, although yellow was available in other countries so you may come across an import in yellow that isn't one of the UK "special editions".

I think the 50 special ones have some sort of a plaque somewhere? In addition they have the TTE bodykit and 18" alloys.

[shaz]

Hi, has anyone on here got one or had a yellow one?

I would like to know if and where the plaque is on these yellow special edition ones....

[Elmo-Ice]

Well, I have one :D

[shaz]

iv just bought one too - 2003 model but i cant seem to find plaque or anything,

although it has different wheels, kit etc...

hi pal,

there are 50 of these made, one per dealer......ive got one too!

ive already tried ringing for a limited number plac but they dont do these, so i dont even know what number mine is either!

many thanks Phill :)

[kam05]

I don't think any of the 50 yellow IS200's were fitted with a plaque?

Were there any yellow IS300's?

[PHILLP]

No only yellow IS200's and the come as standard with the Aero kit on!
