Huh? The 500 actually GAINED more black chrome. The black chrome around the windows is still there and now they added it to the mirrors too…

What I meant is IS 500 exclusive differentiation factor, the Black Chrome finish was IS 500 only, now they added that to the entire IS line, so now the IS 500 only has 3 things - Raised Hood which is still unique to the 2UR and the Quad Exhaust which can be fitted to IS 350 aftermarket, and Enkei wheels.

Hilarious . I couldn’t quote it but what the poors say. A F car just brakes and seats for $30,000 up charge. Bleh. Total waste . I’ve got a 350 lmfao Mine is so much better

I'm about 99% sure that I saw an IS 350 with the IS 500 exhaust swapped onto it today. It was Iridium with a black hood and very much sounded like a V-6. People will always find a way to swap things from higher end models onto their cars.

Also, for those wondering - the color says Blue Flame on the vehicle docs so it does appear they are using the Toyota color. Will confirm when I see it in person and will post pics.

I wonder if Blue Flame Toyota paint will peel, rust, and look like crap in 10 years if left outside like other Toyotas.

They can definitely toss that article out. Mine will mostly be garaged so hopefully I won't have to find out if the paint will hold up. First thing I intend to do is a ceramic coat. Hopefully that helps some.

Just to add one more thing, I noticed it says there is wireless CarPlay/AA integration. Let's see if this is real or another one of the many famous typos.
