MSRPs leaked
The IS350 comes only fully loaded. Sigh. Lexus and Acura are never gonna be able to fully compete with the Germans if they keep this all-or-nothing mentality.
The good news is that there's gonna be (EDIT: could be) an IS300 after all.
my.is thread: http://my.is/forums/showthread.php?t=246166
From http://www.lexusport.com/
2006 IS250 (base model)
$ 27,585 - Manual - RWD
$ 28,955 - Automatic - E-Shift - RWD
$ 30,905 - Automatic - E-Shift - AWD
2006 IS300 (base model)
$ 32,925 - Automatic - E-shift - RWD
$ 34,875 - Automatic - E-shift - AWD
2006 IS350 (fully loaded)
$ 42,475 - Automatic - E-shift - RWD
notes: Transmission choices haven't been set in stone as the choices for each model change weekly. The IS350 will sell only in a fully loaded configuration. est. release date 2005.10.31

"The North American market may not see both the IS250 & IS300. Only one of the models(most likely) will be chosen."
If there indeed is an IS300, I'd rather they bring the IS300 over here.

Sounds like this is still preliminary information.

So I'd presume that if the IS300 does get picked, it'll get a manual. Although knowing Lexus, I wouldn't be THAT surprised if they gave up the manual altogether.

The info is not authentic. My sources are always down the wire from Lexus.

very interesting, the prices in fact look pretty reasonable to me. i don't think we will see the 300 here though, 250 and 350 make more sense, although i wish there would be 300 here as well
42k fully loaded, that's very big move by lexus, going right head to head with the 330
