Lexus doesn't have an M3 fighter, the closest is the IS300 L-tuned. It is a dealer installed body kit and wheels, and some suspension mods. It doesn't compare to the M3.

Yeah i read that the IS430 is supposed to have 396hp, that's almost 400. It's going to use the 4.3 V8. and a 0-60 time of 4.5s

Altezza and IS is very very different.... for example... Altezza offers 6-Speed Manual Transmission with 3S-GE engine (same engine used by Celica GT-Four, though smaller [I4] it can produce well over 500hp easily) where as the new IS only offers 5-Speed with 215 Inline 6, i am not sure what the engine model name is

To be correct the Lexus IS300 is the American version of the Japanese Toyota Altezza. The Altezza first debuted all the way back in 1998. It came out in two versions, with 3 levels of trim:
Prices are for 2003 Model (Much cheaper than the IS300!) Altezza AS200 (2.0L inline 6, 160 HP @ 6200rpm) - base model = Yen 2,230,000 or about $18,700 - Z edition (sport edition) = Yen 2,400,000 or about $20,000 - L edition (leather edition) = Yen 2,800,000 or about $23,500 Altezza RS200 (2.0L inline 4, 215 HP @ 7000rpm) - base model = yen 2,100,000 - Z edition (sport edition) = yen 2,400,00 - L edition (leather edition) = yen 2,600,00 The 6 speed manual and 5-speed autostick were both available starting at the beginning in 1998. So far there are only 2 engines and 2 trannys avail. The 3.0 L I-6 avail in the USA is not an option in Japan. Interestingly the sport model has the I-4 engine and not the I-6. The engine makes 215HP, however it doesn't feel as strong as any of the 210HP Mustangs I have owned. However it handles and drives much better than the stangs. Not to mention it's just a nicer car inside. Besides it's got Toyota quality!  AL
