Does anyone else find all the mods and upgrades done to IS Fs as distasteful as I do? Shiny wheels, shiny grills, suspension lowering (for looks! not performance!). I'm surprised I haven't seen photos of IS Fs with giant rear wings, but I haven't looked... I bet they're out there. Spinners, anyone?
Lexus made some pretty good design decisions. I love the fact that the car is subtle and only "car people" know what it is. I feel like I can leave it at the mall parking lot and it won't attract a bunch of gawkers or invite vandalism.
What's the motivation behind making one's car showy? I'm no psychologist, but I sense minor issues behind the persona that needs the extra attention.
But then again, maybe my partially English roots are squashing my sense of adventure.
What do you think???
