Yes!!! I've been waiting for some more detailed interior pics. Those really hit the spot. Thank you.


Just curious, have they let you drive it?

Since it's a one of a kind hand built pre-production, this particular one was built for static display only, not to be driven.

It will be like any regular off the assembly line built Lexus. But the thing that makes this Lexus unique, is the F marque and tuning.

Elaborate please....

no seam welding, chassis re-enforcement? nothing?
Or are you just saying that the F cars will have their own assembly line and not be hand built?

The cars will be built in Japan like any other Lexus and Toyota, welded stamped steel. You guys are dissecting this information way too much.

wow....i had my serious doubts, but its not that crazy looking as it was in the beginning. this is a very nice car! cant wait for it to come out. havent taken my 350 out to the track yet, but it looks like this IS-F would be a lot of fun.
