Default Does anyone know the weight distribution of the IS 350?

I'm hoping it's close to 50/50 because I live in Minnesota and I haven't previously owned a rear wheel drive car.

50/50 i think.. when i got my car corner balanced it was 49/51/48/52 or something.. so it's pretty even.

Road & Track test data said 53/47.
But I think the test data includes driver and a full tank of gas.
Lexus could be accurate w/out driver or a full tank . . .
