Default Will there be an IS350 sport/performance pack?

I was just wondering if the IS350 had a sport or performance package. If not, does Lexus have any plans to add one? I know asking for a manual IS350 would be too much, but a sport package would be nice.

I just drove my friends 330i, performance pack car and it is a totally different car than a non performance package car. Much more sporty. I was quite impressed. It would be awesome if Lexus could do the same.

I wonder if the luxury plus will be more or less expensive than the performance plus. I want the the illuminated scuff plates on the luxury version, and will be getting my own suspension and wheels, so no need for those upgrades that are in the performace pack.

Don't forget that in addition to the performance package, Lexus also offers performance accessories including a bodykit, a spoiler and a "high-performance exhaust system".

I wonder if it will be a lip or raised spoiler? Lexus/Toyota has been leaning towards lip spoilers lately...

I wish you could get the Prem Lux Plus Pkg with metal trim or blackwood. I just don't want redwood but I want the illuminated scuff plates.

I'd guess lip as well. A wing just wouldn't fit the lines on that car any.

Woah - Evo comes in with completely new material. Thanks for the shots Evo. The lip spoiler looks hot, I hope you can get it seperate from the full body kit. Don't really want to pay 2k for a body kit. The 18" 5 spokes are really hot, I would love to see a shot of the car from further away with those on it.

That front lip is very reminicent of the TRD Japan "Elegant" lip for the Altezza/IS. Very nice.

The kit looks sexy on the IS

Does anyone know how much the performance options will cost?
