Fricking amazing. I love it. Any details or just pics?
No details other than what is already speculated (same engines)
I have to imagine there's some of the abandoned GS design in here, especially if you put it next to the new Mirai.
This looks very, very good. I desperately want to see the new NX/RX/Etc now. This is much stronger than I expected.
Sorry about that 😬Hey everybody -- I'm under embargo for the new IS, and I would ask that people refrain from uploading leaked photos to the site. Posting Youtube videos and Instagram photos is fine.
Looking really good. Not really excited about the interior. I see the ux vent. And the new touch screen fills out of place. But I mean other companies are doing the same so I will give it a pass. I really hope they retune the 350 engine to its full potential if they are keeping it. First let it Rev to 7k+ rpm like we know it can. Give it more hp and tq. And tune the transmission aggressively like the 06 which could go 0-60 at 4.7secs. But make it more consistent. An IS500 will definitely sale if they release it. And maybe a lot of people will finally let their 2008 to 2014 ISF go.
The Lc500 is preety much an F car. The chassis of the current IS GS and RC are similar to an extent. So the IS500 could really be a full fledged F car just without the F. I will say baby LC.A lot of my fellow RCF owners are former ISF owners.
IS500 without F treatment makes no sense to me. It will have the horsepower, but not the chassis, brakes and suspension tuning required to be a good track car while still being expensive (because the engine is expensive to produce). I think it needs to be a full blown ISF, if they are going to put the 5.0 liter V8 and just under 500 HP. Otherwise, put the V35a engine with 416 HP, if it needs to be IS500.
