It's gotta suck being teased like that.
Actually I just went out and saw it again about 2 hours ago. I do all my insurance for my work cars through lexus and I had to drop some paperwork off at the dealer...

The 20WHP is coming from the ECU tune alone, not from the TCU. So basically it's $1700 as DRE1615 mentioned above.
I wouldn't spend a penny on wheels, I love the stock IS-F ones, but there are people spending +$4K on them. Same with watches, I spend +$3500 without a problem when I can get a $30 watch that will serve the same purpose. If you have the money, it's up to you how you want to spend it.

I'm just playing with you Juan. I personally like Rolex watches - they've at least appreciated about 10% a year for the last couple decade. Even a used Rolex that is 10 years old could be sold for more than it cost 10 years ago. How about that! It'll take 50 years or maybe 100 years before our IS-F is ever worth the 62K it is when we bought it. (If it ever makes it to collectible status)

So wait... that IS-F in your sig isn't yours? The one with the glowing brakes? I thought you had gone up to 20" or something. Why spend 62,000 on a car if you can get a Honda Fit for 15,000?

Here is my Rolex GMT Master 2 ceramic M serial with my ISF and my Panerai 090 K series sitting on the stick shift.
At one point I had 8 mid to high end watches at the same time and 11 total from buying and reselling. Brands from Omega/Breitling/Rolex/Panerai. It was very expensive collecting them. I eventually sold most of them as I didn't need so many at the same time. It was fun collecting them though.

Tooth Doc,
What you say about the Rolex is correct. I bought a Rolex President Oyster Perpetual back in 1981 for about $7,500. Last time I checked it will cost about $25k to replace it. I need the band replaced or rebuilt after 28 years. That is going to set me back somewhere between $2-5K.
