They still haven't even announced the final engine specs.... I guess it's too much to ask for a release date.

October
The IS arrives at dealer showrooms beginning of October, according to Lexus... It won't open here until AFTER the launch in Japan in August/September.

They started selling the new GS a couple weeks before the official release date, so mid September is a real possibility . . .

It seems that they always release the manual versions later, same for the 05 G35c. I guess most people here in N.America wants autos. I'm mainly interested in a 6MT IS350 . . .
