Looks good but that lengthened front end is a little noticable.

I think it's the angle the picture was taken from.

I think it's the angle the picture was taken from.

As discussed above, there is a 2 inch extension at the front to accommodate the V8.

"Is that Matt Farah's million mile Lexus?"

It's like a used car salesman trying to sell me a new Lexus.

@flipside909 but this one... Even someone working at an ice cream truck would manage to sell me one

I wonder what these guys even drive or own with their own money?

Between him and his wife, Raiti owns a GT350R, ZL1 1LE, STi Type RA and a Cooper vert. That YT money is good to him. Mark S/Savagegeese does own (maybe lease?) an LC500.

Would be cool to see in their bios maybe? I dunno I don’t really watch any of them.

He owns the LC500.

He does a good job of being consistent with videos, but the enthusiasm is so manufactured, I can't watch the whole thing. All he says is zonk.

I’ll have my hands on one next month. As you likely figure out seems the embargo on driving impressions is mid September.

Ironically I’ve driven it back in March or so.

I still have the 350 and I really would love more power and sound. The IS 500 fits those gaps perfectly. I’m exited to think of them rolling around in the next year or two.

 

[flipside909]

IS 500 F SPORT Performance is a winner. It will fulfill the gap that the IS F left nicely....regardless of it being an F SPORT Performance vs. full on F.

Is there only one wheel choice for the IS 500 if you did not get the launch edition? Is it only the silver ones or are both of those on the pre launch brochure possibilities?

Only the silver ones.
