I think ZF Sachs is inline to supply the suspension bits for the FT-86.
Anyway, I can't believe they just updated the suspension (awesomely) on the '11 and now AGAIN on the '12 :O ..... Shocking coming from Lexus. Good stuff (feel a little sorry for the older model owners though), and this only leads me to believe that the next gen IS F will be absolutely SPECTACULAR.

why would they feel bad?
first people complain about Lexus not updating thei rmodels enough, and now people complain that they update their products too much.
it is pretty funny.
also, a lot of previews already wrote that GS F-Sport felt better than IS-F already.

why? people who purchased IS-F previously knew what they were purchasing and liked it.

Jeez, pay attention to who's posting before you assume it's just another one in the influx of those out to berate Lexus.

With all the updates, I wonder if one day we will see the production version of the IS F CCS concept? That would be an awesome swan song to the 1st gen F.
Do it Lexus. Decent weight reduction, nice enough hp bump (was it 428hp on the concept?), Carbon fiber bits, Limited numbers, not too high a price, Current F owners get first preference.... ***thinks about picking up an '12 F*** lol
