The Lexus IS220d is not getting good reviews here. The same engine is shared with the Toyota Avensis diesel and while 177-hp are a lot, the engine lacks refinement and is often described as "sounding like a tractor". A nice try by Lexus, but it lacks so many things to be truly competitive against the Europeans on their home turf.

The Alfa Romeo 159 is a hotty. A friend of my father just got a golden-brown / smoke silver 159 and it's hot!

Agreed, from the begining i thought this magnificent car was heavy, too heavy.

Alfa Romeo 159 is a joke. Even the ageing A4 is much better in every aspect.

Now it's time for Audi to launch the new 204 hp 2.0 lt TDI engine and crash the competition.

[Imhotep Evil]

He, he, he ... the new BMW 2.0 ltr vtt diesel with 2004 hp 400 Nm is coming too.

And wouldn't it be nice with a ZSG.
