GS-F and RC-F failures? Impact on IS-F

MNMJ · February 8, 2017

I agree; steep drop at first, then it flattens out. I bought my IS-F at £19,000 under list at 8 months old with 2,000 miles on the clock. Then it took just short of 5 years and 33,000 miles to drop another £19,000

I've got an ISF 2012 model and now an GSF 2017 model and i did order a RCF the other year but when i went to ascari in Spain to drive it then I realised with some other that it wasn't a great car lexus had rush the development of the RCF because the US market ask for a replacement of the ISF to Soon or lexus was slow in thinking about a replacement of the ISF..

I can say is that the ISF will be an classic car in years to come and it maybe one of the best car that lexus will ever made, ok ok maybe second next to the LFA but the look at the residual value https://goo.gl/ILo032 only 200 was sold in the UK and they are holding their price lexus uk have only sold 40 GSF

The gsf is a very good car it's not the best looking cars in the world but it has very good handling but the engine noise is just truly amazing.

so thats two pennies worth

Got to agree, I think the isf will prove to be a good investment in the not too distant future.

Not sure if I already made this point, but the three things that make the ISF really special over the GSF (okay the GSF also has one of these) and RCF are:

- I like the fact that the ISF is a regular car modified to be a performance car (they had to mod loads on the IS to make the ISF possible)

- It has four doors

- It is a relatively small/mid sized car, the RCF and GSF are just too big for me in terms of parking and storage

So in other words, it is just that bit special :)

I think this is a really good review of the isf and explains a bit of history behind the making of the car And why i think its going to be a future classic.
