so i am thinking about selling my 2003 tls so i can get a 2008 lexus is-f..

what you guys think?

 

go for it

 

from 2003 tls to is-f, hell yeah.

Do it.

 

I personally like the IS-F but a lot of people here like to hate on it

 

saw a blue one today. Go for it!!

 

nice! go for it

 

And how would that really change your decision on buying a car that you like?

If you like it, buy it.

 

*hates*

Get something else man. The M3 is about the same price.

I would much rather have that.

Or go used RS4

 

Did you get it yet?

 

i'm not totally sold on the "F line" of Lexus. much like AMG and M line of Benz and BMW, the F line builds performance models of Lexus.
in compact,classy, sedans I'd hit up the Benz and test drive a C63. that car is an animal. plus about 35 more hp. which is like good CAI and exhaust.

 

The IS-F is bad to the bone! You only live once, go for it

 

I'd prefer an M3 or S5 over the IS-F but it is a great car nonetheless.

 

A nice car but i would also look at the competition in that price range as well.

 

 

I mean.. just for show tail pipes?
Still a nice car.

 

I've seen more IS-Fs than new M3s. I like them and say do it.

I saw two blacks the other day. hot.

 

I'm still not totally sold that you have a brain, or are even a real person and not just on giant practical joke. But assuming you are a real person I really hope you get see a C63 one day. And I hope the owner literally drives it right up your ass. Thats right, I want to read a story in the news about some retarded yokel who pretends to be a farmer, fire fighter, truck driver, factory worker being sent to the ER with the front bumper of a shiny new C63 wedged right up your ass, rubber undies and all.

 

Eh, If you getting a "deal" on it, then go for it. If not, then you should look at the competition...

 

IS-F =

 

New IS-F looks good. I like C63 and M3 waay better tho...

 

I aint stoppin' ya!

 

yea well i can get a ass kicking deal on the f. all the dealers around me have more than enough f in stock roting on thier lot. And with the economy like this, and everyone looking for hybrids not gas eating monster v8's. Also the 2009 comming out soon, all the dealers i called act very desperate. Lets just say i am paying no where near msrp, closer to invoice.

 

oh yea test drove it and hammered it, whoa! the tl is so slugish. Man that thing just shoots out like a rocket. And dont even get me started on the the beautiful songs it makes when i put my foot down. Its like moving to a totally new country where, you had no idea this kind of acceleration and joy could be experienced.

 

I would go for an S5 just because I think it looks uber classy and you don't see them very much. Granted, you don't see IS-F's very much (or at least not in my area), but I feel they look ricey. Performance wise though, it's B.A.


If you got teh $$, do it.

 

who cares what other people think about the car. if you like it and can afford it, go for it.

i saw a black one on the way to work last week.

 

FYI, you can get a deal on any of the IS-F's competitors as well except maybe the M3 b/c it just came out. But bottom line is that these cars really aren't moving well b/c of the economy and gas prices... so shop around.

Personally I'd look at the C63 or the S5... but that's just me. The IS-F is nice too. Really can't go wrong either way.

 

I think they look like clown cars

 

does it make a difference if the car flat out purchased? or partially financed?

 

i purchased my Ultrasonic Blue IS-F last night.....i'm happy as can be. I came from a 2005 TL....

to this

first pic so it was late outside so i had to take it in the garage

 

congrats dude.

something about they designed the hood for the engine is really cool.

 

I see at least one IS-F a week or so. I haven't seen M3 yet. I see too many e92 though.

If you like it, go for it.

 

Nice IS-F. I've seen two or three around town, that thing sounds pretty good. However my $ would go straight into a C63 or M3 if I were in that market.

 

im assuming you want to stay with a 4dr. go with the f, lexus never has any issues with their cars (well not never but you get what i mean) and its a pretty nice car from the pics ive seen(have yet to see one in person)

that being said, never will i ever buy a c63 just because of the resident fire fighter/truck driver ...and i will tell everyone who asks about it to not buy it either

 

Do it!

 

congrats, Revolutions!

 

If you don't buy a C63 for that reason alone you're not too bright. . .

 

No, he's pretty bright. I'm almost inclined to agree with him.

 

I've seen a couple IS-F's as well as a few M3's both in the sedan and coupe flavor, and I prefer the M3 much more, it stands out more and I feel is less gimmicky than the IS-F. Still, I would take one any day of the week, though my number one choice would be an RS4.

 

M3. <3

Something about a V8 that revs past 8k...*drool*

 

That blue really sets off the car. Congrats dude!

And I would only order the IS-F in that blue (if I wanted one).
