Exactly, the suspension seems to be what's holding it back from being the 2022 IS-F.

I already purchased the GSF brakes and adapter bracket for my future IS500. Hopefully they mount up, if not, I'll put them on my wife's IS300.

Not sure on suspension yet... I may just keep it stock for awhile and let others guinea pig that part of the equation. I was that guinea pig on a suspension for my GX and it turned into a huge pain in the rear.

Do aftermarket companies like Brembo and Bilstein get information about a future car prior to it being mass produced so that they can get a head start on products they will offer? Like when Apple releases a new phone and companies have phone covers for sale on day one...........
