New Aussie IS350 Owner
Hi fellow 2IS owners, I'm the proud owner of an IS350 F-Sport in Australia.
The IS350 was released for the first time in Australia for the 2011 model year and seems to differ slightly in spec to the US models.
Standard Spec is as follows:
18" F-Sport charcoal wheels
F-Sport steering wheel
F-Sport seats (taken from IS-F)
Nav/Mark Levinson/iPOD/DVD - Audio
Leather interior
The only available option is a moonroof.
F-Sport accessories are not available in Australia, but I've managed to source a few parts from the US:
Current Mods:
F-Sport air intake
Ashtray delete (clean box)
Toms GT Shifter kit (reverses + and - in S mode.)
Planned:
F-Sport rear sway bar
Enkei PF01 18" (Aussie roads are terrible so going too big is not a good idea)
Rear roof spoiler (ordered but delayed due to the floods in my home town)
Tanabe Medallion touring exhaust
Beatsonic DVD/Nav/Phone override (ordered from Beatsonic in Japan)
Lighting mods (Thanks for the great DIY on lighting - already used to change some of my interior lights to LED).
Anyway - this is a great forum, and fantastic info and sharing!

It's identical to this one... So Black Metallic Mica paint, black interior and Charcoal/Gunmetal wheels. This is a new colour for Australia for this model year so is the "Hero" colour (and yes we spell colour that way 
).....
Will be taking some interior photos shortly, but it looks pretty similar to the F-Sport's I saw in US dealerships just before Christmas.
