Mercury Metallic w/Park Assist, no ML and no Moonroof.





How about Mercury Metallic w/every option possible?





Mercury Metallic & Obsidian...





Obsidian w/Alpine No Moonroof & Obsidian w/Black (NM Edition) w/every option.




Obsidian w/Black & everything

I love the Black IS-f but the silver one seems to be more aggressive cause I think you can see each line in the car!

I would get Black though but Silver is nice, hard choice!

Same problem when I bought the GS!

I love the contrast of the silver and darker rims. That's why I chose the mercury metallic (silver).

The black is really clean, the whole package is just too dark with the dark rims and all. Yes I know I said it. The black is too dark. Doesn't make any sense I know. I just love cars with contrasting colors throughout the styling.

Nice pics

Majority of the pics were from the Lexus IS-F Press Event last year in Carmel Valley. The track pics are at Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey.
