Any 2017's yet?

That is the other design change I hate on the 17' IS, the removal of the fog lamps. I think that and the single projector headlamps is the worse design move on the IS. I think it looks far less aggressive with a single headlamp and no fogs.

I got my 2017 IS350 last night. F sport with Nav and Mark Levinson. I came from a 2015 IS250. Besides the engine and transmission and suspension, the little upgrades on the faclieft are awesome. Love the new front end and rear.
I may be on my own, but I love the redesign. I'm one of the only ones here that likes it.

The front end is menacing. I know a lot of people said it's over the top and too boy racer looking, but the new front end demands attention and just looks flat out eye grabbing. It's aggressive and very very unique. You can see the car coming from far away and when behind someone I can assure you they see the new look ok their rear view mirror.
i just can't believe so many people on here are down on the new f sport front bumper. I love it sooo much more than the first f sport front.

I bought an Ultra White/Black IS350 F Sport w/Nav and ML a week ago that was allocated to my dealership, just waiting on it to come in. They've only gotten one 2017 IS300 and a ton of IS200t's, no IS350's yet. I'll be coming from a 2015 Atomic/Rioja IS350 F Sport, only real difference being the color and no ML. It's only been a week but I'm getting impatient

When I joined three years ago, the 3IS forum was on fire. It seems to have died down, so I'm hoping the refresh will liven it back up.
Congrats to both of you guys!!

Hey all,
New here. Just signed the papers for my new 2017 IS 350 F-Sport Series 3 in Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 yesterday. The dealer I bought it from doesn't have any in stock, but they said there's one at another dealer about an hour's drive away. They're just looking to verify if that one has been sold yet or not. If not, they told me that I'll be the first one in Canada with a 2017 IS 350 in Ultrasonic Blue.
Looking forward to owning a Lexus for the first time.

Hey guys- Me too! I placed an order for a 2017 350 F Sport. I'm in WA, expecting it this weekend. I hear you on the refreshes. I was apprehensive at first, but the front end looks modern and fresh. I like the cleaner look with appearance of only 2 ducts upfront (as 2 are integrated inside the grill) vs. 4 distinct ducts previously. Not to take away anything from the 2016, that's a beauty all its own. It's still as menacing as before, just in a different way. I'll post pics when it comes in ��

I ordered a 2017 IS350 F Sport (RWD), Caviar, Rioja Red with ML. Hopefully I'll be driving it within the next few days.
I almost pulled the trigger on the 2014 version of the same car a couple years ago, but decided to wait and eventually put a deposit down on an M2 instead. But after waiting waiting and more waiting for a promised allocation that never came, I got my deposit back and looked at Lexus again. I'm glad I waited, because I prefer all of the changes made in the '17 refresh. I really wish they would've added more power, but it is what it is.
