a coupe is coming.. its gonna be two door IS-F...its probably gonna be released early 2010 which I think will also be available for the IS350 but im not sure. In all honesty though I saw a picture of the coupe or more or less the prototype and I didnt really care for it. It looks like they try to cram all that design in a two door which is shorter in length. It just looks awkward. And as a second note, im a hardcore lexus lover and speed lover. I could not wait a year to get my IS-F but its interesting to see the changes though. Regardless NO REGRETS, I LOVE MY CAR as is.

I don't think I'd like the IS as a coupe either. And waiting for an 09 just for a new console????? Have fun waiting I guess...
