Has anybody thrashed the Lexus IS-F demo car at Rmd?

The silver car with the "IS-F" plate at Richmond Lexus... Who has messed with it? Burnouts during test drives? Who has ripped it to redline with 30km on the odo? lol

Apparently it's got 2500 km on it now. Saw it at the lot and curious as to the demonstration history.

I saw the car. It seems like a very good deal. But the car has definitely been thrashed.

Plus, you would cry if you saw the way most of these cars are driven on the way to the dealership. Those 4-10km's on the odometer when the car arrives at the dealership are probably the hardest km's that that engine will see, especially the high performance ones.
