How about releasing some other models than fu*king about changing the face of a model that's not been out for that long?

makes me wonder why they think a facelift will do much to their nurburgring times.

Aerodynamics on a track with highspeeds like the Ring is key, looks do influence aerodynamics. You can wind-tunnel test but real life results are important too. Driver input among other things.

But then again, even with the Camo, it doesnt look all that different from the current one save for headlamps, this. I'ld guess the changes affect the IS350 and 250.

Lexus comes out with a car, and then a few years later they do a few small updates to keep it current with the rest of the model line. This new IS will be a lot like the changes they made on the GS form 2007 to 2008. It will get new brake lights, new instrument panel, and turn indicators on the out side mirrors.

They really2 want to be like Merc and Bimmer... So JAPAN copy all of the way that German did.

Its funny how they come up with a new car so quickly...Unlike BMW or Merc who only update 1ce in every 6-7 years..Turn indicators on the side mirrors? Thats very Mercedes-Benz of them..But it should be interesting since Audi,Merc already have their new small exec sedans in the market...and now BMW and Lexus are facelifting their versions..
