I saw one on showroom floor at Beverly Hills Lexus as I was driving by the other day, but today it was replaced with a black one. I don't know if the red was sold....Give them a call.

Before the IS-F was released and I'd only seen photos of the Matador Red, I didn't like the color - but after seeing one in person, I changed my mind. It's a really stunning color, especially in the sunlight, and manages to work well with the look and shape of the IS-F.

I drove a red IS-F this Saturday at the Lexus event. It's a stunning color in person but I want something a little more stealth. ![Cool](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/cool.gif)
By the way if you haven't driven this thing on track, it's a BEAST.

I actually was about to get it. I didn't get it because the dealer said no one wanted it. His reason was because red is not a typical color that people would want (which is why they stock a bunch of blacks and whites). For that reason alone, he said it's hard to resell compared to other colors. I think that's why it was all the way in the back of the showroom and has been in stock for quite a period of time.

Thanks, that's more my style. The local dealers I visited had the black, white, grey and silver. Claimed there were no reds at all and I'd need to wait for a blue on special order.
I don't know why they didn't offer to do a dealer search for me, in spite of showing up in my clean Corvette and my wife owning a RX400.
I'd prefer something other than black in the interior, but I think it might work in red. Would like to see it in person to see whether it suits me.

They had (at least) two at the Lexus Performance Driving School in Atlanta last weekend. Unfortunately I didn't get any really good closeup pics of them.
