Also he told my that there's no major changes for the in general, but one new plus point will be that the Navigation will be hard drive based. Do you guys know of any other changes ?

Thanks in advance
so if the nav is hard drive based does it mean it is no longer touch screen and now it uses the mouse like controller? can you store music to the hard drive?

I'm looking into it... the only issue is that the lexus factory system places the amp in the trunk unlike toyota jead units, where it is integrated. This makes for a ***** of an install. Plus, I would much rather have the factory steering wheel buttons for bluetooth.

If I find the 2010 head unit to be too expensive, I will try the BluLogic bluetooth system... perhaps splicing it with the factory buttons and mic. I'll keep you posted.

I was being serious.. I know of the IS-F, thanks.

Can you link me to this coupe? Cause I was just in the dealership last week and they told me there is no coupe yet, only the convertible, and his post spoke of a coupe AND a convertible.

That's because it is an IS-F.

What lexus decides to call the IS x50 is arbitrary. The shape/size of the IS x50 body scream "coupe" and not "sedan". Yeah it has 4 doors but I have a different working definition of "coupe"

Yea I know that's how it's defined, but to me that definition is useless. You can agree or disagree it's all opinion.

If we only had the true definitions of coupe and sedan to distinguish the 335i coupe, the IS 350 "sedan", the mercedes S550, and the lexus LS 460...

would you really group the IS with the S and the LS, or would you group the S and the LS together and the 3 "true coupe" and IS together?

They are just words, to me having a word that only distinguishes number of doors is useless.

Plus I'm not the only one who thinks like this, there are people who will classify certain cars as "2 door sedans" and "4 door coupes", they are going by size.

no.....
if ur trying to communicate with people then you gotta use the right words so people understand what ur talking about

maybe there are ppl classifying certain cars as "2 door sedans" and "4 door coupes but there's also people that think jews should be eliminated
