Curious, will the IS350 be getting an engine replacement next year as well?
And I agree with you KumaF, the way they just tacked on the navi screen is a huge turn off for me. I was initially thinking of picking up an A45 AMG, but the interior designing specifically the navi screen is a huge turn off for me. It seems like such an after thought.

I would think It has to be due to more than that, else the 3IS would also be rated at 318

It would destroy every class in this class (BMW, Audi, etc) if Lexus could offer a twin turbo V6 and keep it priced less than $50K. Even a supercharged V6 would be nice. Based on the "real world" mpg numbers everyone is getting on their IS350 F-Sports, I doubt most will mind sacrifing a bit on mpg to gain a lot more performance. Let's face it - our cars are not gas efficient by a long shot as it is.
Other than that, I wouldn't mind having a performance oriented luxury hybrid - something in the ball park of 350-375 ft/lb of torque while keeping the vehicle weight less than 4,000 pounds.
I'm curious to see if the IS350 gets any more power added, but I seriously doubt it with the IS-F coming out soon.
