Default HKS Exhaust - not coming

I noticed recently in all the accessory logs and info I can find the HKS exhaust is no longer listed, not even as (coming Spring 2006, or whatever). So I shot an e-mail to a Lexus contact who sent me one back that said "HKS exhaust system will no longer be an option". Dunno why, just a heads up.

Yea I noticed that also. Oh well I'm not too surprised if Lexus decided to go with the conservative approach.

I had a gut feeling that Lexus would pull the HKS exhaust.

Oh well. It's not like it'll be any cheaper from Lexus. But I know HKS will still come out with a exhaust system.

Getting it from lexus has several advantages.

1) Usually, their parts are not that over priced.
2) You can find places like Sewell that offer discounts
3) The Exhaust is not illegal since it comes from the factory. - In VA and CA, any change in the exhaust sound will be illegal - LAME.

Since that Exhaust isnt coming out, I will probably look into buying exhaust tips.
