The Crafted Line by Lexus
How do you guys feel about The Crafted Line by Lexus? Specifically for the 3IS?
I like the interior but feel like the exterior is a step backward? Black wheels, door handles, and mirrors? Belong on a Honda....

The IS F-Sport is already sporty and the exterior is so close to perfection as it is that there wasn't much they could do to it. Black wheels aren't going to look much different than the existing gunmetal ones, perhaps even a downgrade. The two-tone seats are kind of nifty, and it would be kind of cool to say "they only made about 1400 of these", but this assumes you were already planning to buy a white f-sport and I certainly wouldn't pay more for the privilege of the seats and bragging rights. It's one of those things that would be great for a mega-Lexus fan who wants a collector item. On resale it might hurt you a bit with the two-tone seats to someone that doesn't appreciate or want limited edition used car.
Instead of Crafted line Lexus should've made one called Essential Line with all options for IS F-sport with memory seats, folding mirrors, parking assist, and around view camera. And USB color for US. Does anyone really care about Tumi luggage color matching with interior?
