Lexus IS 250 SR with Sports Equipment Pack

Hot on the (w)heels of the almighty IS F, Lexus has introduced a sportier version of its compact sedan aimed for the UK market. But before you get all hyped up, the IS 250 SR does not feature any performance enhancements as it is equipped with the standard 204Hp 2.5-liter V6 engine. Instead, it relies on a series of extras to stand out from the entry-level IS 250 upon it is based.

Key features include a full body kit with deep skirts to the front, rear and sides of the car, a rear spoiler and 17-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels. Owners who want to make a sportier statement can order the optional five-spoke 18-inch Tsuki rims. Inside the only additions to the IS 250 SR concern the aluminum scuff plates and pedals along with the standard heated front seats. -Continued

Lexus IS Coupe-Convertible Scooped

This scoop picture of the lightly camouflaged Lexus IS Coupe-Convertible was scanned from an unknown German car magazine by one of the posters at the Club Lexus forum. According to the poster, the article claims that the Lexus IS CC will be available with engines ranging from 177-to 423 Hp, thus meaning that the hardtop convertible will be equipped with the same range of diesel and petrol units as the sedan model.
