Another dealer just confirmed that the position of the clutch pedal is adjustable, but such adjustment is not allowed to be performed by a Lexus dealer because of warranty issue.
I guess that I have to get used to the height until my warranty expires =.=||
By the way, nukis250, thanks for the clutch repair manual (which shows that the position is indeed adjustable ;-))

I might be a bit late on this, but I, too, love my 2IS. I have a 2006 MRM MT and have enjoyed pretty much every second of it. I do have to say though that the shift from 1st to 2nd gear is a little rough; after that it's smooth sailing. I thought that perhaps it was just my car, but I've seen that with others as well. Nonetheless, it's not a big deal and I've heard from some people that the F-sport clutch sort of alleviates this issue.
I also bought second-hand and I got very lucky. I got my car last year with only 4200 mi. on it because an old, rich guy bought the car hoping to be cool but couldn't figure out how to drive a MT. Thus, I lucked out and got a pretty much fully-loaded, brand new 250 for way less than the actual price plus the extended 7 yr / 70,000 mi warranty. Good luck with yours!
