Lexus SEMA 2008: Fox Marketing/Artisan Performance IS F

[Just IS]

I'll find out the 411 once I am there and let everyone know what the real deal is. I'll take some pictures too of course. ;-)

i do have to say i like the body work they did. those fender flares in the rear really help balance out the car with the front flares.

If thats what he does then yes the guy is a genius lol

Hahaha..
Yep..
If he does that then he's a pure genius, and should teach us in his ways.

That's pretty bad ass!! I know the guy who owns/runs Fox Marketing. He was telling me about this ride.

Does anyone know if they TT'd the stock motor?

I guess you didn't read the original article from the very first post? No the motor isn't anywhere close to stock.

I need engine pics to feed my addiction to this car.

Here are three more pics added to the Autoblog gallery, showing the still-progressing Fox/Artisan IS F now with blacked-out logos, grille, headlamps and color-matched front emblem:

Thumbs up on the black out treatments. Nice work! Shaping up nice.

well... if you read the text above it says "Artisan is estimating over 600 hp at the rear wheels." soooo i guess it's +600rwhp... or around 720hp at the crank...

Favorite shot imo, the curves look very muscular.

This is the ONLY ISF that has appealed to me to date. After driving one, I was not nearly impressed. Drove a new M3 other day and WOW. And this is coming from an IS enthusiast. I had my Turbo IS in Brian Fox's booth years ago at the Orlando International Car Show. He is a stand up guy and knows his stuff. There was no doubt in my mind that this ISF would be dope. Well done.
