These are the following mods on the car:

* Espelir performance lowering springs and a performance free-flow exhaust system
* ARC International developed a high-flow aluminum induction box, high-capacity radiator and other engine compartment trim details for the sedan
* Project Mu custom big-brake upgrade with 14-inch front discs and four-piston calipers, high-performance rear brake pads
* RAYS Engineering provided 20-inch Volk Racing GT-7 wheels with cast centers and forged rims
* Toyo Tires provided its newest Ultra-High Performance T1R tires
* Anceltion contributed several styling cues for the IS350's body work

The car itself= the hawtness
The red = yes love the new red
The tint = just adds to the hawtness of the car
The wheels = I'm going to hurl
The tires = are they red too?? Too much
The grill = eww, even more red and that is just a little much IMO.
The C/F lip = oh yeah baby first glimpse of some mods perhaps??
The exhaust = holy heck yeah i wanna hear it batman!!
The brakes = DUH!!! Of course those are great!

Still want CWP though.

I hope these parts also fit IS250. Especially the ARC induction box.

I was before the show "officially" opened so I wasn't able to get any info in regards to specs.

Default Modded IS

I hope this isn't a repost. Saw this modded IS while looking at pics from SEMA. WOnder how they got it lowered. There aren't any aftermarket parts for it yet, are there? Does the car use the same suspension components from the previous IS? Anyway, an interesting pic.

That side skirt on the rear bumper...is that carbon fiber or the same kind of charcoal grey molding on the rocker panels of the GS?
