Is200 Are Like Rare Birds


Recommended Posts

when your driving about all week and trying to see one on your travels you suddenly see three in the same day. This happened to me today around the Stockton on Tees area and on the way back home to Hartlepool. I gave a friendly wave gesture and they waved back :) so far all IS200 drivers are friendly peeps. I often wonder if they think im looney or thinking the same as i am, as you dont see many IS200 about.

has this happened to you? lately?

Not really had anyone wave at me, but that's probably because people in London aren't quite so friendly! Do see a fair number of IS200s though.........

Saw one today that had V6 badges all over it - wasn't sure which was worse, that the owner thought it was a good idea to add so much extra badging, or that he didn't actually know it wasn't even a V6 :lol:

Loads of IS200'S here in deepest Dorset, all being driven very sedately by elderly motorists. On average I see at least 5 a day. The place is minted and one Lexus dealer told me that the hardest thing was getting the buggers out of them and into the IS250.

I dont think its happening, I dont see any oldies in IS250's... what i do see is plenty of oldies going to the new mercedes c class and that must be a worry for Lexus. :crybaby:

Three IS200 in Ioannina, Greece: A black SE auto (mine), a white sport MT (my workshop owner) and a grey one always parked in the same place...

There is also someone with a red IS200 TTEcomp and he says he has the only red IS200 with greek plates. Don't know if that is true but the man is really a drift king...

Had a young chap yesterday pull up the side of me at a set of traffic lights in a 250 looking down at me with a grin on his face, untill i left him there :lol:

But there are loads of 220's, 250's, 200's and a couple of 300's in the area that i see quite often, theres a lady in a 200 le down the road who always give me a wave and have had a chat to her a few times at the petrol pump :)

Well I live in Wigan and work a short distance away towards Bolton. I see a couple of IS200's every day, on top of the silver 54 plate IS200 (just like mine) I see every morning near my house, going in the opposite direction.
