I'm on the opposite side of the fence. Every new pic makes the car look worse and worse, especially next to a normal IS350.

Forgot to mention, the 19" BBS wheel choice for this car will have a graphite gray finish instead of the high polish/graphite combo this car currently sports.

What`s up with the bulging hood? Reminds me of the Camary front end. Lexus could do better.

This particular IS-F doesn't have Mark Levinson. I hope that's not the case for the cars they will sell. I hope ML is standard in those.

As like the regular IS models, ML will be an option, not standard issue.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the "bulging" hood is due to the size of the engine.

God, please ship the initial allotment with ML. I like both kinds of music (engine and ML) and would prefer not to have to special order.

My sentiment exactly. I got an ML-free IS350 when I picked her up in January 06. I was impulsive and was willing to compromise on not having an ML in my system. In hind site, I wish I had waited a little longer until it was released

I believed v8 4+ liter, and it cost about $60000.
