Cherokee_Outlaw Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 A few years ago my plan was to pick up the IS350 on a 2 year lease.. and trade it in on the ISF... thinking $55 for one with everything... ML the works.. I figured a nice $10k preimum.. to see them now at $65k wow.. $20k more for 110 more hp.... Seems like they are setting on the show room floors... I remember waiting 3 months for my IS350 to come in... How many IS-F are they planning on building?

DrCouch Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 My first post on a forum ever. I usually just read. I have a Vette for my summer car and an accord for my work car. We were shopping for a new car to replace the accord and i ran accross an IS-F at the dealership. I fell in love instantly and now I'm wanting to take in the vette and trade it in. My wife drives an SC430 and we love it. I'm just curious, for those who have already picked one up, is the car as nice as it seemed? It sounded GREAT when I started it!
RAKLAW Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I just ordered one today..Saw the Pearl one at the NY Autoshow

I did some hot laps in one at Moroso Speedway. I kept having to tell myself that this was a factory stock ride!!! Amazing!!

noredvette Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Dr. Couch, I traded in a 2007 victory red corvette conv. I couldn't be happier.I'm not sure I'm doing this right, noredvette
F BOMB Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 I've had my Smokey Granite one for a couple of weeks now. I'm embarrassed to say it didn't take long for me to find a Chicago pothole and do a number on a wheel. Thank God I opted for the Platinum wheel protection --- got the replacement covered. For years I've been trying to figure out what to buy, and the more I researched on this vehicle, the clearer the choice became.
tcoury Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 I just picked up my Ultrasonic Blue Mica, loving it so far, but keeping it below a hundred is tough during the breakin period.
Joey K Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Just picked up my Matador Mica Red '08 and am loving it!

I remember waiting 3 months for my IS350 to come in... How many IS-F are they planning on building? I'm thinking about picking up an 2008 IS-F as a daily driver. Its seem the price is dropping as fast as M3. Hopefully it'll be dropping just below $30k this summer or winter this year then I'll sweep one up. I would opt for a new one but I need my SUV so a pre-own one will do. I put my faith in Lexus built quality and affordable maintenance over M3. Otherwise I would rather have the M3.

LEX-SV Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 I do like the IS-F and drove one last summer. But as nice as the experience was, I can't justify swapping IS350.
UCF3 Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 Hey guys. Wanted see how your isf are doing now. You're one of the first ones to purchase and would you mind shring some of your experiences with the rest of us. Likes? Dislikes? Upgrades?
Elcorbs Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Just picked up my 2012 Mercury Metallic ISF this past Friday. I have been looking on and off since 2008 trying to find one and this past Thursday I took my wifes IS350 C in for service and I fell in love with the IS F on the showroom floor. We drove corvettes for years but I swore off them in 2009. Too many problems for the vettes. I will stay connected to this forum so I can get questions answered when I need too.
LEX-SV Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Congrats on the 2012 ISF, post pics when you get the chance.
charlesthehun Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Just got my 2012 ISF black with red interior- traded my IS350 in. All I can say its not driving "Its and experience". Love it been looking for 2 years and the wait was worth it.
UCF3 Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Agree. Had my ISF for the past three and half years and loved it.
