Thanks! My friend is taking the pictures for me. He has a digital SLR camera, and he likes touching up the pictures before sending them to me. So I'll get them as soon as I can!

Edit: More pics have been added to OP (including the much awaited coin holder).

Hi Kenny (Sw1ft):

Could you confirm if your 08 IS has the auto-folding mirrors? Lexus.com show it as a standard feature. Just wondering if it is a mistake in specs. The 3GS does not even have auto folding only manual power folding. Maybe on the 08 3GS it will have the auto folding mirrors. The Japanese version has powered folding mirrors but not auto. Could you confirm?

I can get a picture of the window sticker if you'd like.

Yep, that's the coin holder.

The 18" wheels with summer tires come with this finish. It's the same finish that will be on the up-coming IS-F. I don't know if 17" wheels have the same finish.

OTD was about $34,500.

I don't have auto-folding mirrors. Either that, or I don't how.
