Car of the Day: Lexus IS-F on BBS LM

Haven driven this car on a close-course racetrack, this machine is truly awesome to drive, and unlike anything Lexus has ever made so far. Like all Lexuses, the IS-F is suitable for everyday driving.  When Lexus had a pre-production model set up on a dyno at the Taste of Lexus, and I got to take the car up to 100 mph…boy did it shift way fast (it has an 8-speed automatic), and faster than if you had a stick shift.

This one here in Japan also sports BBS LM wheels, which look gorgeous on anything.  Like the Nissan S13 featured here before, not much is done to make this machine look even better (quality>quantity). BBS does make the factory 19-inch wheels for the car, but would you think this would be even better if the LMs came standard from the factory? More pics via JDMEGO on the jump.
