Quite a simple one really; what are the differences between them all?
Extras available? All that stuff.

I have tried a search on here and didn't get much and also tried google but that was a bit useless, only information I find is the 57hp extra the Altezza has over the IS200 which to me is rather useless considering I already knew the lot.

I personally need to know the information below but I think this sub forum could benefit from having something like this posted up and sticky'd.

just off the top of my head, the is200 has 4 levels of trim, S, SE & Sport.

S - no sunroof, 16" Alloys, no heated/half leather seats (IIRC)
SE - sunroof, 17/18" alloys, heated/half leather seats
Sport - Earlier models no LSD, lowered by 10mm (15 later) sport pedals (IIRC not all had these)
LE - Kodiak sky paint, HID lights

facelifts where in 2003, 2004?

I basically want to compare the 3 so every bit of information is useful.

Right now I am leaning towards the Altezza simply because there isn't that much different between them and it gives better performance and economy to the IS200.

What's all this revving the nuts off it stuff?
I have a 3SGE in my MR2 and that is perfectly drive-able as a daily driver without having to rev it's tits off.

It's more a case of driver focused but comfortable whilst being spacious.
