Just got an IS-F!!!
I know I'm not including very much information, but i just wanted to let you guys know that my dad just purchased an IS-F. Its currently at the dealership right now being cleaned, but we're going to pick it up tomorrow, friday. Right now, i only have a few crappy cell fone pictures, which ill upload later, but ill have real fullblown pictures tomorrow when we bring the car home. im hella excited!
DAY TIME pictures on page 5
update:
Well, i was wrong about the 61k OTD part, my bad, i think is just 61k, not otd. Since Lexus of Stevens Creek is the biggest Lexus dealership in Northern California and the owner owns the largest in Socal as well, they were able to sell this to us before everyone else. This actually the first IS-F to go on sale in California. Others will go on sale in a week or so. But enjoy the crappy night time pictures. I will be taking proper pictures tomorrow in the day time, so if anyone wants to request a picture, let me know.

well here some information about it. It was 61k out the door. Fully loaded except precollision and headlamp washers. we werent originally anywhere near the top of the waiting list however the people infront of us passed cause they were waiting for the ultrasonic blue, so we took this.
Another thing i don't understand if you guys get help me understand. The dealer said something along the lines of " they werent allowed to charge us any markups" which sounds strange cause its such a hot car right now. or it might just be the fact that the dealer loves our family cause we bought 11 lexuss since '89

i believe it is toyota/lexus policy not to charge markups on their cars...dealers can add other options (e.g. tint, rims, clear bra) to boost the price of the car
But wow 61k out the door....not bad!

Quit hatin' and start appreciatin' !!! None of you guys have one either so there. Yeah, neither do I but I'm 100% content with the IS350.
Congrats on the purchase. I highly recommend taking a few road course trips. I'm taking my new IS350 to the track on March 20 to Texas World Speedway during the Taxes Supra Nationals. I'd run the advanced but I'd get my *** handed to me by the 700 HP guys there even if I were in an IS-F so I running the beginner course. JZA80 w/single > IS-F but you don't get a warranty when you tear it up.
