it looks like the neiman marcus edition. i believe only fifty were given the chrome samurai sword look on the wheels. im not sure if this is correct, but i heard that from the head man at longo lexus.

Nope, not a Neiman Marcus - just a Canadian spec IS-F. USDM got screwed with the all gunmetal wheels.

Yup, just a normal Canadian IS-F. Polished wheels standard.

I think the NM IS-F's are only available in Obsidian? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks! I would mod if there's something I REALLY like that isn't extravagantly expensive, but generally I'd keep it stock-ish. Nothing major. for the next little while at least...

The car isn't quite 100% stock now actually, I have a few minor things on it, which you can't immediately see:

Light tint on all windows behind B-pillar.
Full front clear bra, mirrors, and upper rear bumper.
Grom USB audio kit using a 16GB USB flash drive.
OEM white illuminated door sills.
Weathertech molded front mats with Lexus badging. (pic of last two here):


Mild mods in consideration / Wishlist:
2009 IS side mirrors
Panel-type LED taillights (something good, not those ebay ones)
5000K low-beams
Painted calipers (silver?)
Black chrome foglight bezels
OEM steering wheel with alpine lower insert (Like NM except with blue stitching)... (unlikely to be available unless custom)

USDM got screwed by all the complaints with the 250/350 for brake dust. With an all black wheel they minimized the complaints.
