Default 2006 IS Coup

How many are awaiting the debut of the IS coup, targa, and hardtop all in one? Depending on how Lexus present us with the pricing on the IS sedan, the coup may or may not sell. If pricing is $2K to $3K under $40K for the IS 350 then I think the coup will flourish if it could sell at around $45K with all amentities.

Pix are of the consept vehicle.

Default IS Convert

A must need in Lexus' line of new vehicles. The SC is way outdated and too expensive.

I, too am waiting for the IS coupe but don't know if I can wait a year. I don't believe it'll look like your pics though. I also disagree the SC is outdated...either of them. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but the 92-00 SC is one of the best looking cars ever...especially modded. It was ahead of it's time and the rest of the world is just catching up. I'm not very fond of the current SC but it is newer and is very stylish.

I respect your opinion, and by outdated I meant, no major changes in past years. A tweek here and a tweek there is always healthy in the automotive world.

I agree. Both SCs still look great. Everytime I see a well maintained first gen. SC I am amazed by how well the design has aged. They will always be stunning vehicles in my mind.

Rumored, at this point. "Confirmed" would be an official statement from Lexus/Toyota or pics of the vehicle.

A PS of an IS coupe, by my350Z member Netko350Z. I hope they make the coupe lower & wider than the sedan :
