Post IS300 VS The World

I like my car very much, but do you guys think Lexus should put out a more powerful maybe even a coupe IS300. I think that the market were the IS300 sits is getting very competitive. I see the 350Z, G35, WRX, STI, TSX, EVO 8 and I hear the supra is coming back. I have a feeling if Lexus doesn’t make some changes then we might be sitting dead last. Don't get me wrong I don’t think need much but the car needs more horse power and maybe a coupe. What do you guys think?

well the new is3 would be based on the next generation supra, so there you go

but i agree, the current is3 is very very underpower. i have no idea why lexus go with this, but i have a feeling they didn't want to make the tt version coz' they want to stay NA.

hopefully the next gen would be better
