If your that worried about the lack of power, why not change your order for an IS300.
Thank you welcoming me here.
(I found the club thanks to my girlfriend.
She is an English girl and she is living in London. :) )
The reason I didn’t order IS300 is because here in Greece my friend the taxes for cars with more than 2lt engines are extremely high! :( And up to 2lt the taxes are free ;)

You have right George but just think, what do you prefer? To have 155hp or 210hp (for example.) :) ;)

I really i can't understend too why only 153hp :mad:
I hate when i see in the streets cars like Saxo Vts and 106 rally to cost less than half price of a Lexus IS to be faster than a Lexus IS! :flaming:
The IS is not designed, built or marketed as a 'street racer'.
What were you're reasons for buying an IS?
Did you test drive one before you bought it?
Not having a go at you mate - just makes me think maybe you bought the wrong car if racing Saxo's on the street is what you want to do. (which I really don't agree with btw).
When I said about Saxo’s etc. I said it for example. I don’t understand the reason Lexus engine gives only 155hp in 2lt and other cars like Impreza WRX and Focus RS gives more than 220hp!
My requirements in my car are: back wheel drive, time-honored, trustworthily, good power in engine and to be comfortable in driver seat (I’m 6’8” height :) ).
So the only car that completes all my requirements is IS 200. :)
Usually I’m using my car for racing in racing-tracks, in the street I’m just driving fast ;)
When I went to see about IS 200, the car salesman told me this car is ideal for racing. I drove it before I buy it, but I drove it in the city and not at the racing-track.
But surely i don’t I regret buying IS 200. :) I ordered last week and I gonna have it in the end of this year.
Next year I’ll upgrade it installing the compressor. ;)

In the UK most people buy the SE as the base model only has 6 spoke 16" wheels, no leather, no sunroof etc.
for those lovely 5 spoke 17" wheels!
First of all as a new member i want to say hello to everybody here!
As about the wheels here in Greece the base model has 5 spoke 17" standard and not 16" like in UK. Strange... :)
Got it !!
