Lexus IS F Lineup

The 2008 Lexus IS F is well equipped and there are very few options. Among them: the Mark Levinson Premium surround-sound system, the Lexus DVD Navigation system, Intuitive Park Assist, and the Pre-collision System (PCS) with dynamic radar cruise control. With the Navigation system, voice activation and Bluetooth are included, as is a rear back-up camera. A headlamp cleaning system is available, and the moonroof can be deleted for increased headroom.

A limited edition of 50 Neiman Marcus IS F models ($68,000), which will have a black exterior, polished alloy wheels, perforated black leather trimmed seats with white stitching and a unique leather steering wheel. The Neiman Marcus IS F includes the moonroof, navigation with Bluetooth, and the Mark Levinson surround sound system as standard equipment.
