Arrow SEMA Auto Show IS250/350 IMAGES

So far, I've seen one Black Onyx IS250 with tinted windows and one IS350 "Dub Edition" from Dub Magazine.

WOW. That Red really is something else. It is quickly becoming my favorite color for the IS and GS. I also like the tinted windows and tails. Are the headlights tinted as well, or is that the factory smoke tint??

Besides that, everything else is HORRIBLE. The rims, omg, the bodkit....what the f were they thinking??!

On the bright side, atleast somebody already made a kit(well it has no sideskirts, so its not a complete kit)

I think the bad rim choice ruins it. Otherwise I guess it looks pretty cool in a serial-killer/blood-sucking-maniac way. DUBs on the new IS, who would've thought?

BTW, is that the stock matador red? And what exactly are the sizes of those rims?

You think that's the Matador Red ? I think it looks a little different from the Matador Red that I saw both in person & in pics on the new IS & GS, it seem to look more like a custom red paint to me . . .

It looks like it is in a police's Evidence Room where most drug dealers' cars were impounded and ready to be auctioned off. How much would one bids for it?

Hmmm...maybe, maybe not. There is a big difference in light, so I'm not sure. Plus the fact that it has matching rims adds a lot to..... well.... the redness.

Is the red car also bathed in red light? Otherwise, why are the tires also reddish?

This is just........WRONG. At least it gives me a good idea of what NOT to do to my car.
Although that exhaust does look intriguing.

neo, i think they put some red stuff on the tires too, doesn't look like they are from reflections

nonetheless, one of the most horrible is350 i have seen so far (and probably will be for a while)
