Lexus to Build IS-F Convertible

Hot off serious customer demand for its IS-Cs, Lexus will be building a convertible version of its high-performance IS-F.  The IS-F (just to remind you) is equipped with a 416 hp 5.0 L V-8 and an eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission.  Suspension is lowered, shocks are upgraded, heavy-duty brakes are standard, and an aero kit adds an aggressive look to the car.  The IS-F was widely praised by enthusiast magazines for its excellent handling, braking, and smooth acceleration.  We’ll be looking forward to Lexus’s work with the F convertible sometime in the next year.
