Hah. The high window-sills and low raked windshield definitely gave me the feeling of being cramped the last time I was in an IS350. Also, I just didn't feel there was enough headroom: my head was about 1/3 inch from the roof, and I'm not even that tall!!!

Interesting comparisons versus the IS and the current version sedans. It looks like they've done a nice job beating the Lexus competition in space while offering competitive weight and power.

The most interesting part will be to see how they drive in person.

2. Old logic in the ManuMatic shifting (unless they changed it for '07)...in ManuMatic mode, it shifts like the old G35 Sedan ..................................

3. Some of the interior materials of the IS350 seem much cheaper in quality (look and feel) than the other Lexus vehicles.

Those were the 3 spoilers for me; otherwise, I would have definitely considered the IS350...it's a very fast and decent looking car!
I found exactly the same thing......

Plus I would add that IS350 chasis dynamics were horrible

When you say the rear spoiler will stay as is, do you mean it will stay as the chrome lip spoiler??

I was just thinking the same thing Shane. What do you mean da Mayor? Is the chrome spoiler "THE spoiler" or are you saying it stays chrome and an additional spoiler is available that can be added. I definitely think I would get the chrome part painted body color.

That is definitely the million dollar question. I sure hope it is a full rear spoiler!

i dont think you can have to spoiler the same colors as your car, as you cannot have window trim the same, it might also be a function of models ,X, sport package, etc. may change color or spolier at all, but i could be wrong just spectulation

Is that chrome piece really the spoiler? I don't know if it looks like a spoiler, doesn't look out of place or anything, I won't pass judgement on that until I see one in person, I like the current G OEM spoiler much better for sure.

The first-gen doggie-door trunk lid died a quick death - hopefully, the chrome bling spoiler might, too.
