Lexus IS350 with a body kit right? That body kit is REAL smooth too with that paint on it. I love it, good find

XDEEDUBBX 08-15-2008 08:35 AM

This IS-F looks even better in the flesh, the computer rendered shots were nice, but in real life the car is absolutely stunning! I got the pic off of Autoblog, pics from the 2008 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival gallary. I love how the sunlight washes over the satin black paint then fades into the paint.

FWIW, the dash is annoyingly high on the IS cars.
The V8 bulge on the IS-Fs hood is too much. Reminds me of a beluga whale.

nice car till you get to the front.. Reminded me of a riced out civic there for a second

NgoRX8 08-15-2008 11:05 AM

the front has a sadistic smile.

rglbegl 08-15-2008 11:30 AM

Are those rear view cameras?
The mirrors look tiny.


BTW - I have always thought that a flat black car was in the same category as a ricer with unpainted body kit parts; It just looks unfinished.

BRGREEN8 08-15-2008 11:55 AM

the front is ugly

Jedi54 08-15-2008 12:08 PM

I remember this guy from the LA auto show. Pretty cool lookin' but not sure I'd actually want a car that color

moRotorMotor 08-15-2008 12:19 PM

It's a stunning car! Is it just my eyes playing tricks with me, or do I see a rectangular outline on the front passenger door handle where it has been 'modified'?

The door handles have been modified.

moRotorMotor 08-15-2008 12:33 PM

Then perhaps the satin black paint isn't hiding the old door handle very well.

I wander if those Five Axis S5-F wheels are ridiculously expensive. They would look real nice on my 8.

Kris 08-15-2008 02:29 PM

It looks to be a higher end more mature crowd at that event. Not sure if this car would have been the best marketing tool for it.

Also this isnt a flat black car, its satin. it has a bit of sheen to it compared to a pure flat black paint job.

This car is good looking though, grade A body work for sure!

Revvittupp 08-15-2008 03:27 PM

I like everything but the annoying outward bulge towards the front of the side skirts.

delhi 08-15-2008 04:15 PM

there goes the Lexus resale.

SlayerRX8 08-15-2008 06:12 PM

I'm not feeling the wheels or the total lack of a sidewall on the tires. They just slapped on some rubber bands.

The front is rice, but the paint job is very intersting. It's not my personal taste, but I like that someone tried it.
