What are the questions???????

well i wanted to know if any IS200 sport drivers lived local to me... maybe its just me.. but i feel that with my car.. the drive just dnt seem right so wanted to know if anyone local can just test my car and see if they notice a difference..

basically first gear... and 2nd gear.. the engine starts to 'scream' at very early revs.. at like 2.5-3k revs.. i never even bother taking the revs to like 5k..as by then it just seems to me that i am really pushing the engine (from the sound of the engine)..

can anyone shed some light/more info/advice?

car is on 67k ...fsh... 2 owners.. so engine is fine.. but im not sure if this is just how a Lexus engine is.. just dnt seem right to me.. (previous car was a BMW.. and the engine just sounded a LOT better... even at the later revs... but like i said at 2-3k revs.. shoudl the engine be 'screaming'....i would have thought i would get a smooth 2ltr throaty type sound :-S

thanks

mine does the same, i wouldnt think its a problem..just the way it is..is200 doesn't have alot of power/torque as it is and lifting off from 1st gear needs a healthy right foot to get going.
