The Neiman Marcus is the edition that is limited to 50.

Cool, but hopefully it's not my Neiman Marcus their test driving. How'd it look? I never had a black vehicle before.

The plates on that one are the 27202 plates. I think that is the same corporate IS F that has been around a long time. Does anyone know if there are more than one of these plates? I think I have seen the same plates on multiple cars.

did the plates say DST / MFG or DLR to the left of the numbers?

Just saw a black / black IS-F at a dealer in Orange County. Was told they'll have another one in 3-4 weeks. I'm having a hard time justifying the $61k price tag.....

im not too sure about the plate number, but its not one of those ordinary ones.. its pure number and might just be "27202" or something.. and the plate itself looks different from others.. @_@..i dont know what they mean... and i dont remember if the plate says DST or MFG or DLR... ^_^;; sorry.. but my mom said she saw a black one also on the same day without a license plate but with a Newport Lexus frame or something like that.. it seems there are quite a few ISF in Irvine/newport area... ^_^
