Damietta Quartz With 9000 Miles For..

[vinokirk]

Going past my local toyota dealer today noticed an IS200 se on the forecourt. up for 13.5K. I Just had to take a test drive!i never drove an is200 before so i guess i lost my virginity! Such a nice drive and nearly new at 9k miles! Just wondering everyones opinion on value for money! and also the colour.

you went for a test drive

and lost your virginity

i guess that is the lexus experience

You usually only loose your virginity when you have to bend over for the servicing department :P

not sure I've seen Damietta Quartz

[Adie]

Is the Damietta Quartz the IS LE??

[javadude]

Erm not the worst colour that the IS comes in but not too keen on gold.

[waddy]

Not an issue with the price - I paid £13k for mine from Cambridge Lexus with 21k on the clock - and it's in A1 perfect condition.

Not sure about gold though

[MrADeveci]

As far as I know ... there is only one member on here with that color ........

I think it's nice ....

[vinokirk]

Yeah that is nice. i like the gold n black!!ut id also like black n black! But i reckon i could get them down to 13k and at that price its a steal!!! other black/grey ones at that price have 20-30k on the clock!!

@ad77: i dont think its the LE...im sure someone will be along soon to put me to shame! :P

[aido]

The Gold is ace, my first car was the same colour as Gord's, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if he say's it's the best colour when he sees this :D

I'd say good price and great colour - I've seen two or three on the roads in the UK and they all look good - one of the rarer colours ;)

[MacRS200]

Agree with you Aido never seen one that colour but I reckon it looks ace.

Price is seems good too.

[vinokirk]

Yeah Gords is awsome Gold/Black is a good colour combo!! nice rims too! thinking about it but my max price was £9k!!! i could stretch but then getting £5grand extras would be nearly £20k on a car!!! :eeeek:....im ony 20!!! (21 tomorrow :P)

[aido]

In that case happy birthday for tomorrow, there will be a thread in the morning for you :D

[Gord]

Seen lots of them :D one just down the road only ever seen one yellow one and that was at lexus showroom when i got mine :o never ever seen one on the road

[vinokirk]

well thanks aido! much appreciated....isnt the yellow the LE??

[aido]

The yellow was limited to 50 cars in the UK I believe, the LE wasn't really limited edition, it was just in a different colour, but I don't beleive there was a limit on the number they produced, whereas with the yellow one only 50 came onto the shores, and a few were written off.....

[Pies]

I see a yellow one in Aberdeen a lot. It's bright..... Not exactly my taste but at least the owner has something individual.

Unkile me in my common, sorry popular Astral Black!

[gsportcars]

Didn't realise that the gold colour was such a rare colour for the IS.

I've seen a couple but Gords is by far the nicest and most impressive!!!!!!!!!! Always turns a few heads!!

Sounds like a car to have good look at but make sure you look proper at it!!
