Unfortunately due to Australian import lawas i can no longer take this car with me when i emigrate later this year so very sadly it is now up for sale. I absolutely love this car and anyone who buys it will not regret it. It is on pistonheads and ebay at the moment if anyone is after one.

Can anyone tell me where i can get one from? I phoned Lexus and they told me that they had stopped making them. Thanks Paul

Awesome sound!

Never mind, i have the answer from elsewhere. Incase anyone else needs the info, it is specific to the ISF and not the same.

Do the Toms air filters on ebay advertised for the 250/350 fit the ISF too? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TOMs-Racing-Super-Ra...=item35a5c39fbc

I'd better get one then as you're getting a better mpg figure than my IS250. No, seriously, I have driven the ISF a few times now and as I've said many times before, it's like being in my 250 SE-L for 90% of the time with the other 10% when you can use the extra power (and then you're illegal within seconds). Yes I can well afford one, but doubt if I will. All personal opinion, of course. I detect a slight sarcasm with my mpg figures? That is also the official figures from Lexus, and on my first long motorway run without cruise on i actually got 37mpg... which i couldnt quite believe. That will be due to the variable inlet and exhaust timing though. I got less in my old Ford Cougar 2.5 V6. I agree though about your comment of it not being different enough inside. I think the outside is where it mainly stands out with the wheels, bonnet bulge, vents and exhaust. But yes, inside it pretty much is an IS250. But then the 250 is alot nicer than the equivelant BMWs in my opinion. I would like the F to look a more individual inside. But then my wife says she loves the car because its so understated and just 'nice'. And people kind of dont expect it when it pulls away from them etc The 34 and 37 mpg figures are they tank average or brim to brim? My mpg figures are journey figures going between the north east and cheshire. Sat at about 75-80 most of the way with a few 50 roadwork zones and then some in town free flowing traffic too. Im as surprised as anyone else with the figures and i have had around 32 recently on motorways. I dont know if i have just got more confident with the car or wether now using my cruise control most of the times has dropped my figures a little?

I assume you had it in snow mode?

Don't think they'll be selling many. It was pretty difficult selling the 150 that came in initially. Hardly an exciting car compared to what else you can get for the money, it'll be spanked by an M3 or RS4 and a BMW 330D M Sport is only a second or so slower to 62 mph and that returns 44 mpg. I dont agree 100%. I have an ISF and before i got it i had a sit in a few BMWs including M5 and M3 etc, and they are not even close to being as nice inside. They look alot cheaper and basic inside and you dont feel special sat in it. They are alot more common and i raced an RS4 down the motorway a few days ago and i embarassed the RS4. It was considerably slower due to less torque, more weight and the 4WD system. Plus driving the ISF is very exciting. Iv owned it for a few months now and just cant wait to get back in it and drive again every time i get out. The ISF also does 34mpg so its very fuel efficient for what you are getting.

75k? They arent anywhere near that much to buy!

Well apart from my own i spotted my first isf on the road yesterday in Edinburghs st andrews square. It was a very shiny black one and looked very nice. I looked like a bit of a berk though when i shouted to my wife "look another isf!" And was pointing with a big grin on my face haha. If it was you then hi :)

Anyone know if its possible to get these parts in the UK? Im looking to get the panel filter and intake pipe section for my ISF.

Very nice, very nice wheels too!

Hi and welcome :)

To be honest that drop doesnt look that much different but i guess different wheel sizes affect that and if that picture was taken just after work was done then the dampers and springs wont have been ran in yet (they sink a little more after a bit of driving around). Still looks very good though. Lovely wheels, suit the car perfectly.
