I looked at one last week. Some things I liked, and others I did not. I liked the F Sport front end, but did not care for the black door handles or mirrors (though they were better than I expected). The interior, however, was fantastic.

Is there something different with the front end? Didn't understand your comment about "liking the F sport front end", looks the same as my F sport? From the pictures I would have to agree, not a fan of the black mirrors or the handles.

The mirrors were better in real life than in pictures, though still not preferred, but I did not like the black door handles at all. It wouldn't stop me from buying one, but then I'd probably take it to a body shop and have them painted white to match.

You got me looking JDR76! lol! Yeah, I didn't see any difference after I studied the other pictures, just an F sport with the blacked out mirrors and door handles and of course the contrasting leather seats from what I could tell.
No differences that I am aware of. Just speaking to the overall appearance, which I quite like.

I agree the mirrors look terrible as well as the door handles..
I also don't like the cabernet seats with the black inserts..Maybe it looks better in person but from the pics I don't like it.
I did notice that the mats, and cargo mat have cabernet piping around them and say "F-Sport"..These I like
Is there something else the Crafted Series has that the F-Sport doesn't, besides the mirrors, handles, two tone seats, mats..?

In those pics, the red interior looks more like orange, but in real life, its a deep red and looks great. I agree about the black door handles, they stick out too much. Black mirror covers aren't new, and should look fine in person.
Those pedals are the same ones that Lexus uses on all their sport packages, and date back to the original IS300.
