There are a couple of differences that TTE made to this car.
Maximumlex has one, PM him he must know more about it.

Are you from Holland (licenceplate).
If so, greetings from The Hague.

I think it has a stiffer suspension as well. I wish my car looked like that. Awesome. What kind of wheels are those?

Are you sure? The guy is talking about the difference between a normal EURO spec and a T3.

Doesn't the "sports package" have a TTE grill, different than the standard model overseas? I think the headlights are probably standard, though. I don't remember what else is different you should look on lexusownersclub.com. Most of us in thie forum are in the USA and we have no clue because there were no such upgrades from the factory during the years of the 1st gen.

I wonder how they squeezed out the 7hp?
