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.

If you've been following along, this is a "F-Sport Performance" model like BMW M-Sport and Audi S. The "real IS-F" is still rumored to come, with that TT V8 that you mentioned. Now THAT would really be bonkers.
