First vid - Famous Pasadena bridge. Second vid- Mulholland Drive. Pretty nifty.

*Lower any car and it's going to look better. Every car maker does this for advertising (usually weights in the trunk, back seat, and floor). Then, we are stuck with the 4x4's on dealer lots. That Euro ped law from 2004 was by far the worst thing that happened to the auto industry.

Lexus is introducing the convert in an economic environment that is just the opposite of what this car represents. Bad luck for them. Selling the 350C at a $7,000 premium to the 350 sedan when Lexus' sales are tanking will not be easy. The target market has to be tiny.

Here's a pic of the ISc w/F-Sport wheels and brakes only, next to my IS F.



Here's one of an Obsidian on Black IS350c w/full F-Sport accessories.

I think the F-sport makes it look better but i still dont like the rear of the IS-C..

The commercials are very creative and makes Lexus fun which i think is a great thing!

hate the commercials, IS350C lowered looks great. But the 335-vert still steals the spot light.

You know its funny people call the IS soft and the G37 sportier but if you look at the ads the IS is shown driving like a sports car and the G37 is shown as a cruiser.
