The Lexus brochure states this will be sold around the world, so I think it's safe to say there is a good chance it's coming to the US.

Negotiated a low residual so I'll pay off the IS and keep it around until I get a chance to drive the CT. After that...

It all depends on the timing. Enough money in the bank to pay off the IS when the lease is up. Grad school starting up in August which means lots of loans If the CT is released relatively soon (i.e. before I rack up too many miles) the IS might just be traded in. Let's just say it wouldn't be a far fetched idea

I was trying to say it should have stayed on a Toyota, and not shown up on a Lexus.
