IS300 was an inline 6, not a V.

What the hell. Now the Altezza doesnt have rice tail lights and the Evo does. I hope the IX doesnt have them when it hits the US.

Looks like across between a scion and a 2005 A4.
scion front and the sides and rear look like the A4

heh, this is like the 4th forum I see this on and all the responses are pretty much the same. 4 door scion, mazda3/6, m5, tsk/accord. The interior is pimp, but outside isnt all that. Looks too big. And it doesnt look like its going to be all that quick, and least the 250 version
