Decided to go a different route, and I wont be selling her. She will more likely be traded in for a non IS-F

Going with something that can handle in the snow, huh?

Very nice pick up and the interior looks flawless. Whats up with the gear shifter tho. It looks like a joystick of some sort

In less than six hours the wraps will officially come off the Lexus LF-A at the Tokyo Motor Show. And about 36 hours after that, we'll be piloting Lexus' first foray into supercardom on and around Florida's Homestead-Miami Speedway.

But in this day and age, any auto expo wouldn't be complete without one last leak in the final hours leading up to the show, and YouTube – along with the NAGTROC forums -- have delivered.

Theres a couple R32s for sale locally every now and then. I've seen two R33s for sale, one in OR for 25k and one in WA with just a feeler for the price. I'd just stick with the IS since you know the car already and won't have to deal with the various factors of owning a RHD jdm vehicle.


Does any one have Forza 3 yet? I've been playing non-stop in my free time since I got it on Wednesday. So much fun!

My GT is II JR Designs II if anyone wants to add me.

I dont want to modify my car anymore. I would rather just buy a car with a turbo already in it. I dont have any patience for down time. All the long wait, to drive it and then get bored of it...hehe

Just out of curiosity do you guys know of anyone that has done a RHD conversion on a IS? I just tried googling Toyota Altezza front clip and nothing really comes up.

Nope. There has been talk about it. But nothing concrete has been done. At least on the forum of IS300's. Peeps have imported Altezza's tho. But just the shell only

It might be too much to convert a car like an IS300 into a RHD. Give it another few more yrs, and Im sure there will be a few.
