hm...i noticed the steering wheel looks different...like the white area where the F logo is...is that something new cuz I don't remember seeing it in other pics of the car... oh and nice pics!!!

still wondering if I should get all black seats or the two-toned white and black...I know the white will get dirty...but if I get the car detailed ever year once or twice...will it stay the same nice white color...heh

It was the Neiman Marcus edition ... and hence the White Leather on the steering wheel!

Nice shots of the IS-F. Nice as they are, they don't do the car justice. It's sweet.

Beautiful. I would blackout the headlights and the grill and that is about all.

so no cooling in the seats eh?

you can tell in that interior picture, I just see the "red 1-2-3" - no "blue".

At the TOL here in Atlanta the lady showing off the car revved it right into redline...like 7K RPMS. Quite honestly I don't think she knew how high that was because she jumped out of the car, looks at me and says, "Did I do a good job?! Was that good?! I tried to do it real high!!!!" so I just looked at her and agreed. The car sounds like a mad lion, absolutely ROARS.

Anyways, for those of you who have not yet seen the car...just like everyone else has said it is VERY attractive in person. I was worried about the vents, hood, and exhaust looking ricey but in person I can tell you that it all flows together beautifully and I was one of the worst skeptics here. The wheels really are beautiful and help to set off the car with a pretty aggressive stance. The side vents are beautifully executed, and that is what I was most worried about. LOVE the exhaust.

I am not sure if many people realized that this was the Special Rare "Neiman Marcus Edition IS-F"

I for sure thought they would have at least ONE badge some where showing that it is..

Instead the only way to tell is the Special Wheel Finish, special steering wheel, extra F Logos on the seats & special stitching...

Also, it will ONLY be available in BLACK..


For the record, some one should Edit this title thread to include "Neiman Marcus Edition IS-F"

Yes..
Every IS-F out on the street, on display, in magazine testing or @ dealerships right now, are ALL pre-production units..

They can never ever be SOLD or Registered for Daily use...
