johnboy

damn... i want one even more now :P
EZZ
ooooooooooooooooooohhh im starting to like them even more now. better start saving. might be able to get one in a few years. :P
Lex-aholic
Wow - that's more than I thought you'd be able to do with a car of that shape/style. Me likes ! :D
PhoneDrome
Will Prolex do a frontlip? Carbon?
waddy
Any mods to the stick engine are a potential no-no though the ali block wont take any substantial power increases.

Looks the business though :D
Mr Singh
1st one looks nice... Needs dropping though

Mmmmmm... Granite Sky, some nice 3pc wheels, and a small front lip is all it needs!
Purvesh
Candy red is definately a hit :lookaround:

The second set of exhausts would look could on the first car...
Caspa
Looking good...

Looking forward to seeing what Lexus come up with in the styling kit front!!!
PhoneDrome
From what I have heard... the color is original :D It's not candy. It is Matador Red Mica :driving:
aido
Wow, didn't think I'd hear myself saying this but I like these IS250's :D

IMHO the round exhausts don't suit the body styling though, it needs the eliptical exit to match the styling of the rear bumper

Like everything else though, much better looking than the car I saw in Geneva!
eXOBeX
The first one would be nice once those chav stickers are peeled off!
Prefer the colour of the second one.
Mr Singh
Does anyone know the weight of the IS250?
marcus
wow that is very nice ............and the red just looks the part, with the blacked out windows :whistling:
koshime
i want thet carbon front lips...err how does it affect the resale value back to lexus??
Ahmet
Talk about don't waste any time !!!!

They look the nuts! I like the first one ......
Adie
Looks wicked. Especially the first one. Love the colour and the wheels :D
