Another wheel design flaw that I dis-like is that if your going to make a wheel like this,
it will need a left and right design.... in my honest opinion..
These are not...

What in the world would make you think it is lighter? It is the same damn wheel mass wise, just a whole lot uglier than the older ones, which weren't that cool either, but better. Why can't anybody just pay attention to what BMW and Audi do for wheels, but even they have gotten kinda ugly as of recent.
I'm glad I didn't wait and got the 08' I kinda like the LED tail lights and gray wood.. looks classy! Anyone know when they'll stop tuning and come out with a whole new body style ? Any word on the 2dr or convert or were they just rumors ?

I am glad I went out and bought an 08 but I did wait for this 09 to come out and I am very sad when it comes to the changes made. Right now the IS350 is perfect for me both inside and out!
