    Got my 08 ISF in 09 just hit 155K keep it in tip top

    Got my 08 ISF in 09 just hit 155K keep it in tip top condition. My daily driver, triple digits MPH are not uncommon on the daily. :) Love this car and the rarity of it. Seems to be catching on in the social verses these days as im getting increased compliments over the past 2 years. I plan on keeping it well into its classic age

    M car performance but you can sleep at night

    ISF is simply unrivaled. A naturally aspirated V8 that just rips and you never, I mean ever, need to think about reliability. It's rock solid. It's like having an M car without all the ridiculous issues. This car will appreciate in value for sure. E30 M3, MK4 Supra territory.

    It's a fun and amazing car

    The ISF is a family car with a v8 and 8 speed transmission. It comfortable and sounds amazing with the borla exhaust on the one I'm currently selling.

    Performance and reliability.

    I love this car. Stylish, high performance and reliability all in one. This car is an absolute pleasure to drive. It replaced my Supra and I couldn’t be happier.

    This is the best car ever made by Lexus!

    I?ve owned a lot of cars in my 50 years of life.05 C55 AMG,95 M3,94 LT1 Corvette,01 Porsche 911, 2007 Acura TL-S to name a few.The Lexus iSF drives and feels like no other.Its like a NASCAR with all the luxury you want.It will only rise in value.I have the first year a 2008 and I get compliments on the car all the time.It is an icon and will go down as one of the best 4dr performance cars ever.

    Car I?ve wanted for quite awhile.

    It?s been great so far. I?m hoping as long as I take care of it, it will last. I bought it used but Carfax was relatively clean. Even for a 10 year old car it?s nice.
