Thinking of buying the CT 200h?

I've been thinking about getting a hybrid (prius or insight probably), but if this car comes in under $30k decently equipped and hits the reported ~44mpg, i may finally have an excuse to trade in the IS

Not sure there's a market for this - just looks like a more expensive Mazda 3. Also not sure those that would shop for a small hatch like this can afford Lexus service anyway. And an A3 TDI would stomp it in highway mpg, handling, and 0-60. Seems the IS/HS is the lowest price point Lexus can go in the market, and even the HS is having trouble finding buyers.
Just seems like a bad move.

ct200h will only has 6 speakers everyone! maybe 1 more with the ML upgrade. how does it feel when paying ~$30k for a high-end prius with just 6-7 speaker. This system is similar to the new Scion XB.

I think your A3 assumptions are just that

Nice 6 up front so most likely at least another 2 at the rear so safe assumption of 8 - 10 speakers standard, 12 speakers for ML ? ( add 1 center channel and 1 sub ) or maybe even more ?

TDis are not performers for the most part.

Lexus does have reliability going for it though, big time.

I would have to agree - I'm just waiting for the MPG numbers and price on the CT200h to make my decision, and the other choice is the A3 TDI. I have never owned an Audi, and have owned 8 Lexuses (or Lexii?). So I'm pretty biased, but I will still compare the two.
