Mark X 200/pc rear lamp is cheap @Izso

Honestly, I think the Mark X suits you and your family more. Versus a tezza. Considering a stick tezza costs more, then the Mark X looks like a very viable option. I would honestly take the Mark X over the tezza if both is automatic.

Yeah I know what you're saying and I'm thinking along the same lines if I settle for an auto. Right now i'm considering either a fully stock manual Altezza in pristine condition at the right price or a Mark X auto la. The auto Tezza is too weak and I don't really want to do swaps even though it's cheaper. Not for a daily, for a project I'll do it that way.

You know he doesn’t give a rats ass. Next thing he’ll go and do something (he thinks is) brilliant.

How much is the budget though? If budget of an IS250, I'd rather get a Mark X and save the balance for repairs and mods, otherwise just go crazy and find an Evo 7 which is his original dream car to begin with!
A decent 2011 IS250 starts from RM6,5000 to RM93,000. Depending on how well Izso find a good deal and negotiated for decent prices. Before i bought the Volvo, i was highly interested with the IS, unfortunately the not so fast engine and smaller than average space gave it away. Furthermore the ride is no sportier than the Volvo, which i found highly surprised as i was expecting Lexus to be sportier since its a RWD to begin with.

Thanks,
Ken

Wakakaka .. .X catching up with Alteeza manual.

Then again, given a long straight road, the X typically does that
Out of nowhere a diesel pickup smokes them all with a ferocious sounding intake and exhaust.
Both X and manual tezza driber stop by the roadside discussing which diesel pickup they should buy to replace their just-being-tapaued vehicle..

Omg pure sex. Makes a Lexus look boring. Whoever says it’s a Camry must be stupid.

I haven't come across any Mark X within budget and that doesn't need any fixing up. There was one 28k one that needed electronics work (window, seat and boot) but otherwise it was ok overall. Seats needed reupholstering too.

I maxed out the number of votes. Gonna remove the Altezza manual that I can't afford soon but need to find a car to replace it with

As we grow older, we need bigger engine with autobox.

actually me...thinking of downgrading the engine instead.... and more gears on manual...(5mt to 6mt) :biggrin: :driver:

dont mind driving autobox or cvt...but need to see the whole car/powertrain/drivetrain combination first.... :biggrin:
