Car Magazine

CAR Magazine have recently acquired an IS-F on long-term test. They've put an initial report in the December 2008 issue of the magazine.

Basically, they like it so far, apart from criticising the ride, where they feel there isn't enough suspension travel. In due course I imagine there will be updates on their website as well as in the mag.

EVO had a 250 on long term test (iirc) which I was reading the end report whilst in the Dentist waiting room this week. They liked it, which was nice.

IS-F should be more fun I would have thought. It will be interesting to see how having that much power etc effects teh day to day driving experiance.

Had my IS350 tested by Ben @ Car. He felt the IS-F was neither road car or track car............liked it though.

Reckoned the IS350 compressor was a good compramise

Gotta say I'm more interested in the CTS-V now, can't wait to see how much it costs when it makes it over here next year. Even the normal CTS seems like a decent buy, it's £30k fully loaded for the 3.6 V6 :o

Plus the way they seem to depreciate they'll make even more sense second hand :)

Yeah they're surprisingly cheap, I'm not too keen on the previous gen one, it's actually a pretty nice car but the interior is a bit cheap for my liking..........the new one is very nice though so might think about one in a year or two.......

Obviously second hand of course, they're still pretty cheap new but makes a lot more sense second hand :winky:
