I paid $32,500 for it, but I'm also in the car business so I bought it at the auction

If you care about sports car-like cornering and engage in spirited driving along twisty roads, then you should get the F-sport front and rear sway bars. These are different (more aggressive) from the "F-sport package" sway bars that come with the car.

But someone please correct me if I'm wrong. As far as I know, The F-sport package IS350 doesn't come with the F-sport sway bars.

Oh one more thing, if you do install the F-sport sway bars, expect a harsher ride. That's the tradeoff. Harsher ride for the ability to corner at higher speeds.

F-Sport sway bars do not come on the car, you should definitely consider them.
