Following on [url="http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=10647&st=0"]From this thread[/url] I thought i'd start a poll to see what people thought...
So if you had the choice, which one would you go for???

Ian you should have included Supercharged Altezza and maybe Turbo Altezza as well, whilst you have included Supercharged IS200.
Its obvious what the outcome will be, as most folk on LOC drive is200`s!!

Those come under 'Something else'
I could've included Turbo IS200, 2JZ powered IS etc... too, but didnt want so many options the results were meaningless.
After all, this is based on Woggledog's post, who orginally wanted opinions between the IS200 SC and IS300, i added the RS200 cos i knew you'd kick up a fuss if i didnt!
And personally, I dont think the outcome is obvious, hence the reason for having a poll...
And its not a competition Scott..

If the IS300 came in a manual I wouldn't hesitate, but I've gone for supercharged IS200

I've gone for a std IS300.
I love the Lexus, and think it's a great car, but I use it as my every day driver so I wouldn't want superchargers etc.....that's what weekend cars are for. So I won't nice performance (not blistering) and nice sounds (not deafening) in great refinement. If I had the money, I think an IS300 would be perfect.

i voted for a sc is200, as even tho i have just sold my is200 im gonna be back with a is200 sc! (at some point)
although as was said before, a 6 speed manual IS300 would be sorely tempting especialy if there was a turbo or supercharged version.

So far more people would go for a supercharged IS200 over the IS300. Guess this is partly the lack of a 6-speed manual option on the IS300 and partly cost. Looks like Lexus are missing something in their product range. They either need an official IS200 SC or a low trim IS300 which allows this....

"Looks like Lexus are missing something in their product range."
Yep. There's a big gap from the IS200 to IS300.
B*W, Audi and Merc all have far more engine options
