My dealership had about 5 here in SC. I was close to getting the Red Mica 250 F-Sport, but I wasn't getting a good deal. So I purchased a normal 250 through Lexus in Miami. Planning on getting the front f sport lips and grille soon.

You know what's really rare are those is-c f sports. I like the new 19's that come on them.

When I bought my 2011 IS350 C F-Sport a few months ago, I was told there were only 150 of them.

I live in San Diego and I have seen quite a few IS250 F-Sports, mostly the white ones. I have only seen a couple of IS350's, mostly in black.

I feel kinda special where I'm from, driving a F-Sport around and knowing I'm the only one driving it. I haven't seen any F-Sport driving around my neighborhood and even on the freeway

TP is sexy. I bought a 2009 TP fully loaded and loved it until I bought my baby now. A bay area dealer was hiding it in their inventory as it was the only Star Fire Pearl in the country. It was a few months ago and they were asking 5k over sticker. Luckily im in the car business and got a crazy deal or I would have waited for a while.

lucky SOB lol, SFP is just so sick but I've grown to love my TP about a couple of days that I bought it. It was a choice of Black, Red, Gray or that fancy USB color lol. I wanted something shiny and the USB is really not for me though, its rare to find a USB colored IS around the bay but I didn't care. So i got stuck with TP

It is hella SEXy but very tough to keep clean. My TP never took this much upkeep but its worth it. I constantly find my self wiping it down because of the yellow pollen drops. Its so annoying and the second it gets wet it shows all dirt.

The thing that sucks about it is if you let the yellow pollen drops sit it stains and the removal difficulty depends on how long it has soaked in. Pretty annoying.

Default IS250 Fsport Manual?

Can you get the Fsport package with a manual tranny? I haven't seen one yet and don't see where you can get one after surfing the Lexus site. Any help? If this is not offered what is the next best thing for someone who's got to have a manual? Thanks Matt

The F-Sports don't come in a manual. If you must have a manual. Get one and add all the F-Sport parts and accessories you want.

There is no way there are only 500 made.
I live in SoCal, in Alhambra, and there are about 10+
I've seen many of them driving around on the daily basis.
And the sad part? They are mostly asian ladies in their late 50s or so :[
Makes me want to go up to them and ask them to trade cars, assuring them the car would be better in my hands!
