Definitely cool for Lexus to bring on a V8 in 2022 when everyone is talking EV. 50 more hp compared to the original IS-F so that is also cool. Current RC-F motor is used I think.

Slightly disappointing no real IS-F on the horizon but still looking forward to the new LS-F and LC-F with the 4.0L TT V8 with 667hp. The new LX is supposedly getting it as well. Tuners will be looking to shoehorn that engine into the IS for sure.
