I think F-Sport may get my attention too but I'll think of getting one in Cerulean Blue Metallic. Probably need to sort of special order it since I want ML and possibly parking sensors on it too.

http://www.lexus.com/models/IS/featu...e_package.html

Just curious, F-Sport Package only changes some of the cosmetics on the outside besides what is listed in the above listed? I am not sure about the exhaust (F-Sport), intake (F-Sport), sway bars (F-Sport), sport pedals?

Nice! Congratulations and welcome to CL!

Seems like everyone's picking up the FSport 2IS's now! Gotta say they're looking pretty sweet. I'm really liking the graphite wheels they come with!

Excellent choice! The white looks great with the dark rims. Which dealer did you use and how did your dealing go?

Congrats on your new IS F-Sport. Hope to see more pictures! I like the angle on the one you got there.

The F-Sport package doesn't come with the F-Sport performance aftermarket parts like the exhaust, intake, etc. if that is what you're wondering. It basically comes with what the list in your link said.

Thanks for the clarification, that straights out what my dream car configuation would be like.

Looking at the Lexus.com site the package is listed for F-Sport but not sure if packages can be combined, I think it can. So I can do with ML/Nav + F-Sport + Parking Sensors?

I don't think you can get the F sport in cerulean blue. I want one in Glacier Frost and asked on here because it wasn't clear on the Lexus website. I was told they only come in starfire, smoky granite, silver, USB, matador red and black. It is really a shame because some of the other colors would look so nice.

To the OP, very nice! Hope you love it as much as I have loved my IS.
