  1. Thanks. I’ll always have a soft spot for F cars. Only yesterday I spotted an IS-F for sale. Was a bit taken aback. Had to stop, get out and have a look round it. F community is a small community.
  2. Yep, got to be careful. I find that driving a car with more torque, you can get fun at lower speeds. I really did find myself really having to thrash the ISF and RCF to get fun out of the cars. Lower gearing would help - 3rd gear is apparently very long on the RC-F
  3. Yep, the gearbox is frustrating and only magnifies the lack of torque. For me, an F car is great at crawling and great when being thrashed - it’s the middle ground when you want to make effortless progress - that’s where it suffers. Made even worse if you stick an after market exhaust on.
  4. Yeh - I dig that. Like yourself I owned both an RCF and an ISF and bought nothing but consumables. I think the German reliability has improved. I’m three years into AMG ownership and once again I’ve only bought consumables.
  5. What a beaut! Those designers at Toyota could learn loads from the Swedes 🙂
  6. I used to, but the lack of torque killed me. You really have to spank an F car to get much from it. No room for that on the public roads. My Volvo has oooooodles of torque and great fuel economy.
  7. The way everyone is going electric, give it six months and you could well find yourself getting a deal. Less and less people are looking for big capacity engine cars that are expensive to tax. Mix in the fact the cost of living, inflation, interest rate increases and it could soon be a buyers market!
  8. It was pointed out to me that someone had taken my comments seriously, took to Facebook and quoted the car as having a hard life. 😂
  9. Always disliked the wheels on the LC500. Too bling. Obviously designed for the yanks.
  10. £32k. Nice. I sold it for £34k 😂😂😂😂
  11. Well - it's a Lexus trimmed in carbon, so taste is questionable. The red tips - just the icing.
  12. I really wouldn’t bother. Enjoy that induction noise and avoid the drone 👍
  13. Totally agree. That’s approaching LC500 money - a far superior car! Of course - you might want 4 doors, but for £50k…… much better metal out there!
  14. Primarily colour, but don’t forget, Lexus performance cars are hard to sell.
  15. I never put super unleaded in any of my F cars. I thinks it’s pointless.
  16. I won’t comment on whether it’s good value, but personally I’d wait, at least until the Winter arrives. Currently the market is mad!
  17. Like the car. Shame Lexus haven’t put a twin turbo 6 in it (and made it available in n the UK)
  18. With the whole world seemingly going electric, these will soon be an amazing bargain!
