You guys are getting your inventory nearly a month before I am told they will be available here on the east coast, is this normal or do you think my dealer is misinformed? I would love to see some photos of it out in the sunlight. Also if any of your '15's came with the rear lip spoiler I would like to see some good shots of that. Thanks!!
Thank for your post and the first glimpses of an ACTUAL 2015 model. Congrats on the new ride!
Do you have the Mark Levinson (ML) speaker option on the car? Didn't the power/volume and tuning ***** used to be white? That was one way we could distinguish the cars with the option or not.
Appreciate any followup you can provide. All the best.

We have quite a few '15's in stock already. Screen size remains the same.

i'm gonna have to disagree. This matte finish makes it look pretty rough and not smooth and soft to touch or press. Maybe it'll look better in person for me

I guess that is one thing to be happy about not getting USB, AS should be much easier to maintain and keep looking nice. USB is nowhere as bad as black but still requires some work. AS is looking really good in these photos!

I agree on that! Not a big fan of the new shape of the remote puck either.. but hopefully the new material means less scratches showing up.

Pocky, is the dead pedal on the '15 aluminum? In photos I have seen of the '14's it appears to be just black plastic (I forgot to look when I was at the dealer.) My 2IS F Sport has an aluminum dead pedal. I know it is a silly thing to worry about but it looks better with the aluminum.

Are you planning on getting a RWD model then? VGRS is only available on the IS350 RWD F-Sport model for some reason (I ordered an AWD one, so it wasn't an option for me)...

Appreciate the tidbit about the change to matte surfacing as well - I actually prefer this since it'll be more sturdy to wear, as well as dust showing up!
So it looks like the ***** are now silver instead of black metal on the non-ML stereos, but any idea what the Mark Levinson ***** are like for 2015 (they were white rubber for 2014, I believe)?
Thanks again for these pics of 2015 IS models out in the wild!!

And aside from the indisputable evidence that "pocky" posted here of ACTUAL pics of 2015 IS cars, you can see the joystick controller in several pics in the 2015 brochure as well:

...actually, now that I'm taking another look in the brochure, it looks like the Mark Levinson stereo ***** appear more gray-ish vs. the white ***** from last year - can anyone confirm??

Thanks for posting these pictures!! I've become quite excited about getting Atomic Silver over the past few weeks, and your pics are making me even more impatient...
