The Lexus CT200h is a hot hatch without the speed of a hot hatch

The world needs a CT500, just saying…

CT450h imo

The CT design aged very well; it was a nice looking car when it came out, and it still is today. Definitely one of my favorite Lexus designs.

All they had to do was throw the 3.5 in there, and it would’ve been perfect

I would have been happy with the 2L from the IS200t or even the hybrid from the 300h. Unfortunately this dreams never come true

Should’ve done something like the Blade Master G with the CT 200H.

Tepid 5 door

Will probably get one if I don’t get a 2IS

I kinda regret not getting one when dealerships were getting rid of them (discontinued). As much as I like the current Prius’ look, the CT still holds up today IMO.

I wouldn’t say it’s a hot hatch, but definitely a mild or medium one lol.

Used to call mine a Lexus Prius

I don’t think it’s a hot hatch, but it’s definitely one hell of a hatch that I would proudly daily till the very end

It doesn’t need premium gas either so that’s rare for a Lexus and helps save on fuel

I needed a car for work a month ago and I really wanted a CT, but the prices are crazy. Had a stealership asking 18k for a 2014 just because it had less than 100k miles. I put 6k more and bought a UX 250h F Sport instead. Yeah, no power whatsoever, but so much more comfy and newer.

One day, CT200…one day

Oof. Top end value on my 2012 F Sport with only 65k miles is just $12.5k. And I still probably wouldn’t even get that much.

Wasn’t the CT the first Lexus to have the LED strip in the headlight then I believe the GS got it for the 2012 model and the RX and ES followed right after. I could be mistaken but I remember specifically noticing the LED’s in the headlight back when nobody was doing it… I remember Audi had LED fog lights, my buddy had the V10 Audi S6 and I thought those fog lights were amazing when I first saw them then we started seeing the CT with LEDs in the headlight and we joked that around that he needs to upgrade.

I barely saw these cars especially as they aged and I maybe saw 2 or 3 F sport model CT’s on the road since they came out, definitely haven’t seen an F sport in years.

Had the 2011 for 12 yrs and 217k miles. Damn I miss it!! Great ride and efficient.
