The rear looks considerably better in other colours, in fact the entire car does.

Still need to see black in person, lol.

Well they are just hateful slow people as Lexus has had them for years now.



The design is after the "L" shape, even if it resembles the Nike check.

Yeah the rear bumper of the hybrid at least has some interesting lines to it, unlike the completely flat one on the regular models. I wonder if the JDM IS F-Sport gets the fogs too, like it does in the JDM GS F-Sport.

Here is a hint.... Place your votes!!!!




Maybe we can still work on getting that corrected....!!!

This is a POLL to show Lexus USA our opinion on "Fog Lights" for the 2014 IS F-Sport

Good eyes. Yup since the parts are readily available in Japan maybe there's time for Lexus USA to fix this indeed.

Where do you see 54mpg from? Link please?

Anyway the 54mpg figure must be from a different test cycle that results in much higher figures than EPA's would.

To be honest:

Everything else about this third gen model is nice.

It's just that the front-end headlamps seem to be a bit of a downer for me
