Default sad news... seems like sport design won't come in manual...

umm.... seems like that's the case. yes the brochure and the homepage states that the sport design will come in manual, but at least it's not coming in at this point... longo lexus are having like 5 or 6 sport design coming in but they are all auto they have all the color combo, but again everyone is auto

that's sad coz' i want the sport design color and headlight, but then manual is a MUST for me

it's not the first time lexus says they will make something but it fails to come...

WHY

yeah i saw the pics too, but you can't base on that coz' lexus sometimes decide in the last min

it's weird coz' i just finished reading is300.net, and using different zip you can different kind of sport design all over the US.... what's up with that....

originally i was thinking about an is300 manual sport design, grey/grey fully loaded combo, i am left with nothing

so far with all the zip codes i have tried in cali (south and north) they all don't have any sport design and manual. i tried a zip in the east and it has

Ask Longo to special order. That was the only way that I could get the 2003 Solar Yellow SportCross. They came through for me.
