Some good and bad changes. The spiderweb rims look like.... uhhh spiderwebs. I like the originals better. Also don't care for the "dead" tachometer needle pointing down. It will always have that barely revving look unless you hammer it.
New console looks good and the sport button is great.
Intersting to note, the top pictures show "Lexus" on the back end. The bottom pictures do not. Make up your mind Lexus!

I like the big tach front & center, but it's laughable that it goes to 9k....the rev limiter cuts in under 7, correct? Also, the redundant analog speedo is stupid...just give me a digital speedo. Analog (needle) tach + digital speedo = should be the norm in any car.
Love the seats!!

The rest of the car looks great though! I like the darker carbon fiber trim, I may have to buy those pieces and swap it with whats on my F now...and maybe swap some of the suspension components in the far future as well

nice updates, but I sure wish they'd bui;d a coupe version.
also --- why put the tach in the center, isn't that kind of reserved for manual transmissions? why would this be necessary in an automatic?

while driving in manual mode, it's very hard to race and not run into the redline without careful attention to the needle because this car revs very quickly. i constantly have to given careful attention to the tach and the road, even with the "beep" that is barely audible @ WOT.

I'm glad the tail lights hasn't changed to the new types as in the upgrades in the 2nd Gen.
The winner upgrade is definately the central techo.
Still waiting for a more agressibe and ground effect kit...

im looking forward to seeing the changes in the camber and this revised suspension that they reported. the alcantara in the seats is a nice touch. and the center console looks great with that darker look. the tachometer is unique to the F, which i can appreciate, and its kinda growing on me the more i look at it. but im with 1SICKLEX...the 08's were great to start off, and MY 10 got the LSD. great movement for the F in such a short time!
