There are TONS of magazines like that in Japan.

By no means a creditable source.

Looks the rear (by the exhaust) is photo chopped from an M5 and the rims look like M3 rims.

I seriously doubt that the an IS500 (if there is going to be one) will look anything like the 350. The engine for is500 will have to be at least V10 and the car is just too small to fit in a V10 engine.
