...B6 S4 all the more. V8 POWAH!! That or a 996 (320 hp from 3.6 liters is pretty sweet, as is the sound of that flat six...)

When did they say the IS430 is coming out? They've been talking about that for over a year.

Lexus had one at the LA auto show, but said it was not likely to see production in the US.

Yes it was the same one.

i seem to have read that Lexus said they have no intention of producing it

I have the European "EVO" magazine and it has pictures of that car in it, saying it was a custom job from Millen. Lexus has no definite plans of offering it as a production car supposedly. But hey, at least it's not a physical impossibility to shoe-horn the 4.3L into that IS300 chassis!

Could something like this be put into the long-rumored "new" Toyota Supra???

Didn't that EVO article also say that the car was spotted over at the 'Ring, though?

I find them harsh, overly mechanical, and just plain loud. I admit I haven't been inside a recent porsche, they may sound really cool from the cockpit. But standing near them, unless the person is simply driving slowly, I just find it painful. I wouldn't want to subject standers-by to that myself.

If they do offer it, that would be a nice option. The only thing that IS is missing is the engine to go with it. The v8 would do it.
