Wasn't Chaser a mid sized car?

Hmm... I always thought of the GS/Aristo as mid sized, but I guess they're more 'large'.

Was there a recent smaller Toyota RWD sedan before the Altezza/IS?

GS is classified as mid sized, and IS is small sized. I don't know anything RWD that is smaller than Altezza/IS from Toyota. It might be the smallest RWD sedan from Toyota in 2000s.

Chaser and its succesor the Mark X are pretty big almost GS/Aristo size but more sporty. Toyota needs to put a turbo V + MT in the Mark X and then it would be like the old tourers.

Luckely it wont be long until we see the return of the turbo engine of toyota, the 2013 Crown Athlete is gonna be the first to receive one.

It's a great news even thought we will never see any Crown models in the states.

Thats true but what the Crown gets first follows to Lexus. My bets are on the GS getting a Turbo engine in the next MMC in about 2 years. The Crown has always been the testing bed for new technologies, first toyota with ESP, NAVI, Turbo engine (70's) and had the 2GR-FSE three years before the GS350!

Are the graphics on the windows standard? If so, I'm in just for that. Hopefully it says something cool. ;)

Can someone shop that into a is-f?

Best I could do

Too bloated looking design to be the IS-F.

I would make the hood longer and the rake on the windshield more steep but my photoshop skills are poor

^ I don't understand the front end at all, what's the point? :D

Literally translated is "dual push" (push as in push a button in, not push a car forward). Weird word choice, but I bet it's a Japanese translation thing.
