What I said was the below…

To expand further, like the GS F was longer then the RC F, companies reworked the axle section lengths or Tips in some cases to compensate…

Once you try to bolt up, you’ll see what I mean.. In your case, some customization may be required while companies still work on dedicated IS 500 exhaust systems..

Welcome to the Lexus Family!!! I 100% Echo your sentiments, my 1st Lexus was the 2014 IS350F-Sport but that's only because I couldnt find an ISF... so badly wanted that V8 w/ a Manual Tranny... but the RCF and GSF never appealed to me like the IS

No we got the Last V8, and the Best (Same engine but most HP generated) Enjoy Boss and Safe Driving!

Did you have to pay for shipping? How much was it?

Default Shipping LEO

It’s a steep $3195 but it is all the way across the country, with a top notch shipper covered and protected from the elements.

That sounds about right. I was quoted $2300 from Texas to CA at one point. No dealerships in CA wanted to play ball with you?

Contacted 10 different dealerships in CA and they are all a joke! They are more interested in wasting time and playing games then actually making a sale - of course they all expect buyers to pay 30K over MSRP too . The East coast dealer was fantastic! No games, no hassles, amazingly quick to get the purchase done and at MSRP - no markup!

Congratulations. I experienced the same thing in Southern CA. There is one dealership not charging mark-ups or add-ons, and that's Longo Lexus in El Monte. However, their list is up to like 50+ people. I'm not surprised though, everybody in that area and their grandmothers drive an IS.

Congrats! You’re gonna love it.

Which dealer? Since they were so good, give them a shout out. Maybe someone else will buy there based on your experience.
