Does IS500 bounce off rev limiter like the RCF

100% agree. Every time I’ve bounced off it’s been due to manually shifting a bit too late. When the transmission is good & warm can click the paddle around 7000rpm and get a proper redline shift from 1st to 2nd, but when it’s still somewhat cool seems like you have to initiate the same shift at ~6600 rpm to get it to shift right at 7300rpn.
Samesies.
I like that the car will spin the tires on the 1-2 shift when you get it just right at 7200-7300 rpm
I have never had my car auto upshift from 1-2 but I've never been late on that shift. If it isn't 100% safe to watch the RPM I will short shift 1-2 instead. I have hit the Rev limiter in other gears, but never lit it sit there for a full second though. It's usually just a hair late so it might bounce 2-3 before the shift goes through. It will shift pretty damn hard from 2-3 as well when you're at max RPM.

Yeah I have never seen mine turn red like that, but mine turns orange at like 5k RPM.

The ring does turn red in the IS500 but only when you force it to stay in gear further than when it wants to shift (manual).

this is gonna sound dumb but how do I actually rev it out? I put it in sport mode and put it in park and I feel its holding back.
I guess how to rev like this
Is there a way to rev while driving? like I shift to neutral rev a bit then go back to drive.

I am not sure what to tell you. You can rev in Park or in Neutral (obviously Park being the preferred option). Can you explain what you mean by holding back?

Oh yah sometimes after redlining it won’t let me get back to redline like it stops at 5k but I looked back and I realize my oil wasn’t at the half way point for temp. I was looking at the right temp gauge instead of the left.

Here, it's not even going to let me rev above 3800 RPM!
This is just to protect the engine from damage when cold. Not sure if that's what you're seeing.
