Ultrasonic blue looks amazing.

Do you have a full list of specs for the F Sport model?

Thank you for sharing.

spec sheet is the same across the board , although i was told that it will be difficult to request options such as remote engine starter unless it is ordered with the car beforehand , also disappointed with the exclusion of blind spot monitors and dynamic cruise control , heres an official launch quote for the model


windows 7 screen shot

comes to about $54,546

dealership tells me there is high demand for the 250 and very little for the f sport judging by the price ,

I think the price gap between models is ridiculous you can imagine the is 250 starts at $39000 and goes all the way to is 350 f sport at $54k!

25% difference between cheapest and most expensive one is pretty much the norm...

I'm surprised considering how cheap gas is over there. Surprise LExus didn't dust off the ol' 2Jz just for the Gulf market.
