carbon addict

Sorry, but no, only way to get more power is supercharge(£2K+) it or turbo charge (£5K+) it. IS300 or Altezza probably the better options, tho the tezza looses some stoy's / comforts if that is important to you? Toys im not to bothered with at the moment i have aircon/power steering/ hard sports seats thats about as much as you get in the colt. when you say looses some what do you end up with? i think and IS300 would be out of my insurance range.

Well talk about dragging up an old post! well i didnt get the Lexus i ended up buying a Colt CZT 1.5 turbo and got it remapped added full exhaust/ hard pipe kit/ air filter/ various hoses and am running around 207 bhp and in desprate need of a map tweek. BUUT im not enjoying the car anymore. i was never really sure on buying it in the 1st place as i did have my heart set on an IS200. Now im looking for one again but ( yes another but ) i dont think i could cope with to much power loss! a stock CZT 0-60 is 7.4 seconds and mine must be in the high 6's atleast. Now the big question is how easy is it to get an IS to this sort of 0-60? is it cost effective? it would HAVE to be the 200 not 250 for insurance purposes! ( paying 182 a MONTH on the czt with mods declaiers! :o OUCH!) the IS should be cheaper to run/maintain easier to modify/tune be comfier and im hoping more entertaining. Any help would be most apreciated people and sorry for all the questions! Dave

Haha agreed mate, Would have loved a white+carbon IS200 but think they are like rocking horse droppings in all honesty. There is a stunning white+carbon tezza on tezzaworld for sale ;) Lol, I thought he meant that he was looking to get a white one or a grey one, not both together! Yep I'm sure they must be rare......... Btw, I think we're all forgetting that blue is the best colour! Great pics, and I love the wheels on Sam's car, absolutely stunning :winky: yeh i ment a white car with carbon highlights eg spoiler bonnet splitter mirrors. bur all that on a black one would also look mint!

well i was looking at a white and carbon IS200 now i think im going to have to get black! both look stunning!

yeh i shall be taking it easy dont want to stack it! regan mitsucolt closed down its now coltuk.org i have newer shape colt an 07 plate which i will be using to trade against the is (hopefully) my choices were the is200 or a ek9 type R but there is only so much you can do with a FWD!

yeh should be good though colt has an amazing 74 bhp but it just doesnt cut it anymore it doesnt make me smile like it used to. and ive always had a soft spot for the is200.

hey all not an owner yet as im only 19 but im looking at an is200 for my 20th birthday so im here for research. if i was to get a 200 i have major plans for it :D i currently drive a 2007 mitsubishi colt 1.1 which just doesnt cut it anymore its 74 bhp isnt enough! especially after driving the old dears impreza! anyway i hope to find out what i need so i will be putting your search button to the test!
