10 year special F-iversary model after a 2 year run. haha

i think the blue interior with the seats and CF looks kind washed out. would have looked better with a deeper blue, imo. the flat paint doesn't look bad on this car. The only thing I'm really feeling like i'm missing out on is the rear CF diffuser.

Actually it's not! The 2008 ISF, the very first Lexus F model was introduced 10 years ago in the fall of 2007

Yeah, I know 10 years of F stemming back from the ISF. I just thought that it was funny that the GSF has only been out since 2016 and there's a 10 year of F special edition of it. They should have made 50 special edition ISFs. Now that would have been awesome.

As a matter of fact they did make 50 special edition ISFs. They're known as the Neiman Marcus Special Edition. They were the first 50 ISF's ever built. I really like what Lexus did here finally! I always wanted my ISF to have a blue trim option like shown above! They even have the blue caliper finally!

If they could figure out how to remove 300 pounds along with the cosmetics, it would be really awesome. I saw titanium mufflers, so there's an easy 50 pounds, but still 250 to go...not sure all the CF can save that much, but it would be truly awesome if they did!

one reason im not a buyer for the 2018, Even if they did carbon composite on the inner door structures, like the LC.

Only 240 10th anniversary RC Fs will be built, corresponding to the current number of U.S. Lexus dealers, while the 10th anniversary GS F is limited to just 100 units. Both special editions will be arriving at dealerships this summer.

I just got my 2017 USB 2.0 a couple months ago, tempted to trade mine in for the anniversary one lol.

Then again, we'll see a mark up at the beginning, and then a year later, the car is still sitting and then they'll offer rebates etc...

The 2018's are sitting on dealer lots.
