Lexus has unveiled a special version of the IS set to be available solely in Japan, dubbed the ‘F Sport Mode Black III’.

The upgrade package is available for the Lexus IS350, IS300h, and IS300 F Sport models and comes with a number of distinctive features. It was released on August 25 and will be available from Lexus dealerships across the country.

Immediately making the F Sport Model Black III stand out is the Titanium Carbide Gray paint scheme that brilliantly accentuates the aggressive shapes and design lines of the sports sedan.
