Thanks, my girlfriend took the action shots.
It was great fun sliding around and the IS is very controllable in these situations.

Sucks the US isn't a diesel fuel market yet.. This car looks great and performs well, only BMW fags will get pissy.

My good friend just sold his EVO8 for a IS250 with 6-speed.

Lexus is having some reliability problems with its diesel engine.

BMW's have a lot of problems too. In general diesel engines are less reliable than petrol engines.

The diesel engine is not bad but the performance is not what you expect from a 177hp (162hp here in Belgium) engine. Fuel efficiency is also worse than the latest from BMW and Mercedes.

I drove the IS250 automatic earlier on and it’s the better choice for this car.
