Which IS/Altezza has a 6MT?

Title really says all here: I was wondering which variation of the Lexus/Toyota IS/Altezza has a six speed transmission? I may note, too, that I am only talking about the sedan: not the wagon.

Thanks.

Don't care, thanks. I'm looking for which one has a 6MT out of the box.

From reading the cars description it looks like the us versions (IS) have 5 speed automatics while all of the japanese models (Altezza) had 6 speeds.

Edit: I took out a few and tested them, The IS 200 (J) '98 and the Altezza RS200 have 6 speeds while the IS 200 '98 and the Altezza AS200 have 4 speeds as stock.

Ah, thanks a bunch mate! This is exactly what I was looking for. Good thing, too: there's an IS 200 (J) in my dealer right now!

Cheers!
