Looks good but too bad it doesn't have a dual exhaust like the 250 and 350.

I like what I see, congrat's man!

A 220d with a Manual, you should have tons of torque on tap!

Enjoy it

Congrats and welcome to the Club! Looks very sharp!

IIRC, the IS 220d costs something like $61.000-$73.000 USD in Norway. Must be quite successful to be able to purchase a vehicle like that!

COngrats and welcome we have a few IS 220d owners here. Maybe time for an official thread? Hmmmmmm.....

FWIW, everything F-sport will fit except the intake and the exhaust. You got the RARE 18" wheels with the 220d, most come with 17s.

Thanks for sharing and welcome!

I like it! Very unique, industrial-looking tailpipe!

velkommen!




Du burde senke den - 220d er unormalt høy av en eller annen grunn..

/ you should lower it, the 220d sits unusual high for some reason..

good thing you found a sport, the luxury has a hideous gear ratio I've heard.

heres my 250 with the stock suspension: (yeah - need a fsport drop too..)
