In my parking lot. Crappy camera phone pics, but I'm telling you it looked great in person. I can even get past the stacked exhaust. Loved the wheels.

I'm going to get one as my DD in like 3 or 4 years. Hopefully they will have an aftermarket solution to those pipes though.

I had one rev in my direction on the way back from work in the Vette. Sounded incredible. If only he wasn't going the other direction...

That exhaust is horrible.

Otherwise, it's a nice car.

Agreed. That looks strange..

BMW's and Lexus' are starting to look very similar.

So did this car end up with a 4.6 or 5.0? And what are the power #'s? Just curious as to what Lexus got out of their 4.6 or 5.0 compared to Ford.

They have been seen in the mid 12s stock correct??? I was thinking 4.3 ~ 4.4 0-60 based on that kind of ET.

Hrrmmmm... I'm not really digging the whole stacked exhaust bit.. I love the body styling though, and power-wise I'd bet money the IS-F is a friggin blast to drive.. Though if I was going to go that route, I think I might just wait for the Hyundai Genesis coupe to come out..
