Default Lexus F Sport

Hello everyone. Thinking about getting an IS350 soon. Probably last years model for a better price.

I will be doing exterior and suspension mods. Strictly for looks.

My list of parts are(unsure of which styles yet):
-Front Lip
-Side skirts
-Rear lip
-Visors
-Aftermarket trunk/ trunk lid
-Coilovers
-Nice flush wheels
-Exhaust

My question is:
I'm not sure what the F Sport package includes.
Is it worth getting the F Sport, knowing i will be doing these mods?

Only thing I see worth so far is the F Sport exhaust.

Any comments or advice? thanks.

If I remember correctly you don't get the F Sport exhaust with the package.

The F sport ISx50 comes with a front lip but other diffuser style lips can be added, skirts and rears for the f sport is stock, the Fsport comes with a rear spoiler like the ISF so that's would really be the only two external changes. Then it has a nicer interior (suede) in my opinion with sport pedals. And sport suspension which I believe is stiffer than the stock ones.

Edit: comes with 18x8/8.5 F sport rims as well

If your going to do all of those mods then it would be better to just get a regular is350 without the f-sport package. Id only get the f-sport package if you like the front lip and wheels and the way the f-sport packaged is350 looks as it is.

And if u like the interior trim color and amazingly bolstered seats are to add to wanting an fsport.

But if u can live without that then get a regular is350 and just upgrade from there.

^ Basically what Jakers' photo shows.

If you like the interior and the cosmetics (front lip pieces, badging, wheels, spoiler, etc.), the F-Sport package is something to look into. Otherwise, if you don't care about those things, just take a regular IS350 and add to it exactly what you want. It does not come with F-Sport aftermarket accessories like the F-Sport exhaust and sway bars though; you'd have to buy F-Sport accessories separately. The F-Sport package is missing some luxury features like cooled seats and stuff. The F-Sport package is what drew me in to buy an IS350. I've never liked the IS and wasn't planning to buy one until I saw that package.
