How different is the body of the ISx50 compared to the Is F. Any side by side comparisons?

I think they also did some work on the undercarriage as well to reduce drag and lift.

The car looks ugly overall. The parts I'm more interested in are the front brakes, outer tail lights, instrument cluster, and if it comes with it, the under panels. Besides that It looks tacked on with a VIS kit of some sort. Not much thinking went into how to make it appeal to the L-finesse direction they are headed for.

Now the GS-F is supposed to be the M5 killer and it may have a version of the V10 from the LF-A. If it does I hope they don't get the same kids who did the IS-F to do the GS-F. The GS-F needs a much more professional approach at sculpting the body to achieve the respect it deserves.

There's very little difference in the taillights. Just a small square of clear for the turn signal. Most people wouldn't even notice. The brakes would be a great mod, so would the instrument cluster, although, quite complex.
