IMO, it is really a mistake Lexus has made. While they market CT as a hybrid with great handling and sporty look, they just contradicts the formula without any manual control.

My feeling is if the car sells well, next year they will add the paddle shifter to it.

I hate to see this again..When I got the 06' IS, it was without the shark fin antenna while the JDM model of the same year already had it. Look what happened.. a year later, Lexua added the shark fin to the IS!
I agree. Not sure why we don't get them. I use the manual mode in my 450h quite a few times and it works like a charm, as Ryan stated the gears are simulated and its like engine braking or going into a specific gear (complete with number of the gear on the dash).

Wow


In the above case, Hong Kong beats Japan.........by one color

For one:
The Japs don't have that Dark Grey Mica (1G0) color :P

However, since Hong Kong does not have Mark Levinson audio system so I'm guessing the CT that we will get in the Philippines will not have it either.

So far, in the Asian region, only Singapore gets 13 speaker ML sound system for the Lexus CT.

Thanks for the video. CT200h indeed is a good looking car, both inside and outside. I like the 7" screen pops up when you push the engine start button!

Lexus vehicles equipped for the HK market are rather basic- usually without any options at all. I'm surprised that we're starting to get nav.

The only Lexus with ML here is the LS- it's not even available as an option on other models.

Singapore seems to have ML available on upper trim levels for all of their models. Are the Filipino models outfitted like that? If so, chances are, you'll have ML available.
