I’ve really enjoyed your vids. After eyeballing ISFs forever, I finally lucked into on this June, a 2008 w/ only 56,000 miles on it. I love everything about it honestly. It’s a great car foe having power and performance but also a very sensible daily driver. Highway fuel economy is incredible for 416 hp V8... I get 26 mpg routinely.
My uncles friend bought this new back in 2011 or something like that and he took me for a ride when I was a kid and ever since then I’ve always wanted one
Still loving mine. It’s my daily and for weekends I have the e92 M3 FBO NA dct. Absolutely still love both , they are very different. I have owned e92 M3 ess 625 SC 6 speed as well. Prefer the dct I have now. Will look to add c63 at some time. Look forward to your next video.
There’s a lot of chatter lately about bringing the IS-F back this coming fall. And dropping a twin turbo V8 in the LS. I stick with Lexus because there’s no big headaches or even aggravations with them. Crossing my fingers for the return of the IS-F this year.
Boo! The IsF is extremely engaging... Coilover, and and a full RR (headers, exhaust, intake, tune) tune is the way. I have a 2010 IsF with bolt ons and 420hp at the wheel.
The IS500 is still slower than an (almost) 15 year old car, with less hp and it's not a true F car. If they make a new ISF it'll have a twin turbo V8 with 600+ hp.
@@skooksreviewks7806 WTF kind of crap are you smoking? The specs on the IS500 are already better than the last ISF. It's like you're stuck in 2014 land or something.
The later models are soooo hard to find. Consider a 2010 like this one, and outfit it with the updated suspension and steering ECU. Those are all the changes everyone is after and it won't cost you much to do. You'll save a ton of money too over the premium of the 2012+

After having just watched a video on what it's like to own a Cadillac CTS-V and considering the ISF as an alternative to buy rather than the CTS-V, after watching this video and reading the comments I am thoroughly convinced that the Lexus ISF is a better then the second gen CTS-V, especially considering the CTSV Gen 2 sedan goes for nearly the same price, weighs more, is prone to more issues, and gets worse gas mileage.
You were Lucky on the Lower Control Arm Bushings.My 04 Es 330,that I bought w/ 100,000 mls on it & First Owner was from Mass.,But Had What few repairs needed@ Non Carfax Reporting Shops & had Rust on Entire Lower Control Arms & Had to be Heated w/ torch to remove,as Lower ball joints were Part of control arms.

I have been looking at these cars for years. I wanted to buy one when they were going around 15k euros, but parents said that too much power and is rwd, now they go for 25k....
I've said this before and I'll say it again, the initial year 2008-2010 of these cars are a bad representation of this car. That's three years of this car being mediocre in comparison to it's competition. Unfortunately those are the cheapest years so it's the one most people buy, review and modify. It's definitely Lexus' fault for half assin' this car when they launched it.
@@camdengonzales4352 because they were way too stiff, didn't have LSD at first, and the suspension changes not only improved the ride but also the handling. They also had weaker offset uglier wheels and headlights, so compared to M3 or AMG any reasonable person wanted those instead, even with their issues. I had an 08 and now a 12.
They didn't half ass it, there was a small team that took this up as a passion project, and they did it kind of behind leadership back, we are luck that lexus decided to go though with it in 08 because by 2010 there was a business case to make it better.
@@trialbygaming4588 You're description WHY they half assed it. It doesn't mean it wasn't half assed. The initial years of this car is terrible in stock format compared to e92 M3. I've owned a stock 2010 ISF, driven a 2012(A MILLION TIMES BETTER than the 2008-2010 years), owned an e92 M3, currently own a modified 2010 ISF(suspension, steering computer, LCA bushings) and an MR2 Spyder with a 2zz swap set up for track usage(a ton of mods). I have countless hours of track time over the last 20 years, been to race school and am certified for my SCCA Full Competition License. In my experience with the cars, the 2008-2010 version of these cars are not good when compared to the e92 M3, it's not even in the same ball park. I'm not telling you your fandom is bad, I'm telling you the suspension is stupid stiff(stiff does not automatically mean good handling) especially for a car that needs to be used on the street as well, the steering is absolutely dead(the 2012 changes are SOOO much better it's not even funny), the suspension geometry leaves the rear of the car being uncommunicative in heavy cornering, I could go on and on and on with all the issues. The fact that they fixed all of these from 2011-2013 tells you they were aware of them as well. The later year ISFs are such a massive upgrade.
Sold my 08 about a year in a half ago for 18. Now an isF id want is like 35-40k. Almost not worth it to get one🥲 I watched a similar situation happen with evos from 2018- to now. and now these.
@@EatSleepDrive absolutely right (if I may be so bold enough to suggest an analogy of a girlfriend v/s wife....without meaning any offence, ofcourse). I wanted to know the costs of Ownership of the M3 as against the ISF. Because you have first hand experience, having owned both cars.
In my humble opinion, RCF and GSF and probably the LCF, they feel much more artificial than the ISF. ISF is really a more honest car, more hands on, as the first attempt of Lexus shines through.
Looking to upgrade to ISF from my IS350. With the IS500 coming out, wonder should I just wait? I’m guessing the ISF prices would drop once IS500 comes out. Thoughts?

You could compare your ownership experience with the M3 and the ISF
The M3 was more of an occasion to drive and the ISF was a little nicer to live with on a daily basis. Both have their places in the world.
@@EatSleepDrive absolutely right (if I may be so bold enough to suggest an analogy of a girlfriend v/s wife....without meaning any offence, ofcourse). I wanted to know the costs of Ownership of the M3 as against the ISF. Because you have first hand experience, having owned both cars.
Wish you'd sold it a month ago, I just picked mine up two weeks before you put it on the market.
Jesus first vid of yours I’ve seen and did you ever wash it? And why is the rear lower than the front lol
Is the 11-14 that much above the 08-10? With a limited slip diff, and completely revised suspension I've heard it's quite a bit faster.
Around a track probably, but not faster in a straight line.
In my humble opinion, RCF and GSF and probably the LCF, they feel much more artificial than the ISF. ISF is really a more honest car, more hands on, as the first attempt of Lexus shines through.
Out of all the cars you’ve owned, which would would be your top 3 favorite?
Looking to upgrade to ISF from my IS350.
With the IS500 coming out, wonder should I just wait? I’m guessing the ISF prices would drop once IS500 comes out.
Thoughts?
ISF's are going up in price. The IS500 is not an F car. It's basically an IS350 with a v8. ISF chassis is much different.
BMW 340m competition that’s what it sounds like . Awesome car that is if that’s what you got
is500: im about to end this mans whole career
Another beauty is thr M3 V8 GTR.
2010 IS F here 115k miles. Got it at 106k for 23,500 after T,T,L. Ownership cost so far? Gas and oil change.... about... 1,000$? Owned since 2019.
How is it now? I saw one at a car show and instantly felt like I needed one...😅
Is it worth buying a 140,000 mile 2008 ISF for $5,000, I need reassurance the engine is gonna hold considering it is a V8

I love the F sport model but here in Wisconsin awd is needed due to snow as a daylie driven car. Was thinking of trading my wrx 15 for one.
Will swapping in winter tires be enough?
