has ne1 here changed the maps (CD) for Sat/Nav on Altezza (imported)? I would like to know whether it'll change the Jap (language) to English by just changing the CD. Please help. :zee:

I haven't driven IS200 specifically.. but know the difference as I have come across with AS200. My opinion is LEXUS IS200 is TOYOTA ALTEZZA AS200 with more options. Same engine, same power, etc, etc. No matter wot you display outside (IS200 badge or ALTEZZA badge), you will find the difference when you get inside the car. Mind you, most of these additional options are also available at a price when you buy a brand new ALTEZZA. On the other hand, RS200 is different with a powerful engine (YAMAHA 3S-GE). It is indeed 4-cylinder with a much nicer sound :D The optional extras are available at extra cost for this model as well. Some extra options are not available for other models. Bottom line is, all these cars are from the same factory with different brand with different perspectives. 2nd hand prices are around ¥ 900,000 - ¥ 1,200,000 for RS200 and ¥ 750,000 - ¥ 1,000,000 for an AS200 depending on the year and mileage.

well, the space saver sux.. I need to buy a standard allow to replace it.. I cannot imagine runnin with a space saver and 3 standard allows..
