Default Will Lexus release release\develop another performance part?

Do you guys think Lexus will eventually develop\release more OE aftermarket equipment for the 2IS?

I don't think they will, but what do I know? There are enough aftermarket outfits out there these days that can do it cheaper and faster (and a LOT better), I just don't see Toyota trying to enter that market. But then again, what do I know?

Yes, but not extensively. Perhaps a new spoiler or body kit when a refurb is needed, some improved suspensions, but nothing more than that.

Aftermarket Companies will be more than happy to provide this need. I'm pretty sure that Lexus wants little part to make their cars "too rice." Even the idea of tightening suspension for a more firm ride may be too radical for Lexus' plush and cushy ride style...

Yet another stupid poll. I don't understand, is the poll for us to guess if Lexus will make more after-market parts. Is there a prize if we guess correctly? How or when will we know the results?

A better poll would have been to ask if people want or don't want more OEM after-market parts. But I'm pretty sure the answer would be a resounding 100% in favor.

If it's stupid then why participate? Very mind boggling why one would submit a post to a thread they thought was dumb..FYI it's called stirring up a conversation. And yes you do get a prize, it might not be something material or even feesible, but you can carry it wherever you go. This prize my friend, is the satisfaction of knowing another human beings opinion, and learning not to be to enamored by your own voice.

That's why I didn't vote.

It's like a poll for "Will Lexus come out with a new Green color?" Who cares, totally, irrelevant. A poll saying "Would you buy a Green colored IS?" at least has some potential relevance.

I hope not, since I think anything that comes out of Lexus will be overpriced. I'm kind of hoping more aftermarket companies will enter the market.

It's not like most of the aftermarket stuff isn't overpriced anyways.
