Default 9-30-07 IS-F Visits HIN in NorCal - Matador Red w/Black Interior

Here are some pics I took during the special appearance of the IS-F last weekend at the HIN Night Shift event in Pleasanton, CA. This is a near production Matador Red IS-F w/Black Interior. Options included Mark Levinson/Navigation, Moonroof and Radar Cruise.

The IS-F finally has it's own badge on the smart key fob.

Matador Red is always my favorite color for the IS, IS-F or otherwise

If it's me, I would change the exhaust setup WAY before worrying about that big F

Those in particular were not. I will see a few more in the next few weeks, I will check those to see if they are or not.

That's really nothing new. That's been the same since it's world premier in Detroit earlier this year.

I think it should, but even a $120K LS600hL does not have illuminated scuff plates nowadays . . .
