Also, I can see the roof is dark coloured, but is it carbon or just black??

It's similar to mine in that every time you look at it in the photos, you pickup or notice some other subtle detail that really works.

Shame you can't bring it over with you in a couple of weeks!

I'll just have to hope one of my insurance claims in New Zealand goes belly up! Lol.

Then I can come and see it in person.

I really wish I didn't see this post. My "regular" F just turned into an IS350 for me. Congrats on that car, it truly is a keeper.

Damn, very nice. Love the look of the CCS-P. Wish the parts didn't cost an arm and a leg.

Take a look and see what differential you have in that car.....I dont think you have a Torsen...you probably have a nice 1.5 way clutch pack limited slip.

Pretty impressive they made the skeleton out of carbon as well, most companies cheap out and use FRP. Plus I don't know if you guys have handled dry carbon before but making that F symbol would be the biggest pain in the *** to not have any fiber hairs. Must have had it cut to fuse the edges and laid down prior to layup.

So this package/car came directly from Lexus like this? If so, how many of these one off cars were produced? I always thought you could only buy the parts seperate and then put them on yourself. That is one hell of a car! Congrats!

Indeed! Could have been laser cut, then vary carefully put together. The laser should fuse the ends to keep from fraying.

Very nice car OP. You need to remove the rear diffuser and get it replicated lol

Looks great -- I think I echo everyone here by wanting to see more pics! I'm not usually into big rear spoilers, but I might actually like this one.
