I drive an ISF because I want to be different and own something that I know I'm not going to see going to work and back in. That's not something that can be said about an M4. I personally am not a fan of BMWs, never have been. I almost bought an E46 M3 maybe 8 years ago when I was 23 and was told by main dealer salesman that I "should look at something a little more within my price range" It pretty much sums it up for me. @Linas.P, what's wrong with the Audi brand?????

It's a tough one but the press cars are always going to be well spec'd and as a result is sometimes not a fair comparison. If ceramic discs were an option on the RCF then who's to say that Lexus wouldn't do the same, I know I would!! Many car mags will publish as tested prices so sometimes that shows up the better spec'd cars but I'd like to think that if you have enough money for either car then your not daft and can see through the lap times! Track battles are a little meaningless anyway to be honest, I know I wouldn't but an M4 over an RCF because it's a little quicker round a track. The issues I have with BMW at the moment is the fact that it's a BMW. It's a brand image thing for me!!

I ran the oem ISF space saver on the rear for approx 20 miles once and didn't die. Won't that fit??

@Flytvr, you voted sliver didn't you, your only just not a ISF owner. Suppose that that's the rules though!! Now I just need to sell the ISF and red will win!!

May be worth looking at softer compounds also, particularly if your milage ain't massive. Got to be cheaper than custom wheels and may handle a lot better too. I've had R888 tyres and the grip when warm is exceptional. Not too sure about using tyres like that this time of year though. Maybe look at bigger wheels!!lol

@dr_rick is no longer a Lexus driver I believe. I've got the details of who did his exhaust somewhere though. I think someone on here bought his car actually!!

Phil Mcrevis isnt bad either but was a bit pushy! Lol

Agreed, though any half decent engineer would try the simple stuff first, I'd hope that if they have had the fob apart anyway to diagnose a problem then you would look at battery 1st. Engine battery is a good shout. Also, if I manage to fix something and don't know how I did it then a loose connection is always a good excuse! Ha

I certainly did not, however I also didn't get a salesman claiming he would phone me back about an RCF then not bothering!!! I'm not annoyed about it at all, dont feel like I need to rant about LEXUS EDINBURGH!!!!! not phoning me back at all. Not that I'm annoyed, just in case you were wondering. What does Lexus coffee taste like? Is it a premium coffee that never breaks down but most people don't appreciate it non the less. P.s. I'm not annoyed at all

Had this issue on my exhaust so done some welding and sorted it, no cost and a local independent could do it for a hour's labour

I love that era of high altitude supersonic jets!!

It's ok, we understand that the ISF just doesn't do it for you any more.... So is the RCF a mid life crisis car?? I could do with a mid life crisis

It will happen, just need a leave pass from the wife, she certainly won't be coming! My hobby is the only thing that keeps me sane to be honest, it sounds strange but people really do build up an emotional bond with cars and I do have a relationship with it! Maybe that's why the wife hates my cars, she gets jealous!

Lol, I like that saying! Must remember it.

That Megane was impressive!!

Makes sense from my perspective. Not enough of us as it is, especially in light of recent movement away from the ISF. The thought of ratty one day getting a GSF/RCF would mean I would also have to just for the forum banter

Well if any of us owners of red cars car help with the Mesa red let then let us know. If there's not many then we will be able to manage to track them down! Marcus

Yea, when you lock the car the mirrors will auto fold

It sounds really cheesy but things like these really are good PR for the ISF. It's a really good thread. Only worry I have is that the only people that will read it have already been converted! Lol

s*x on wheels, nice and dirty too!

Two V8s........ For when killing polar bears with one just isn't enough!! I was accused of destroying the planet last week because of the ISF by a driver of an electric Outlander. I reminded him that my extortionate road tax entitles me to destroy as many baby seals as I want. When he pays top dollar for road tax then he has the right to moan, until then shut it!

£10k isn't bad at all fitted. Was expecting near £12-13k. Will be interesting to see how the rear tyres and traction control cope at this time of year. Even in my car, depending on road surface, can still get the TC light to come on at 40mph+. Is there a way to maintain cruise control without using the active aspect?? Your going to have to dyno it, for our benefit of nothing else! Marcus

I'll see what I can do, it's how I like my women...... nice and dirty

Don't start here too!!!lol. (I think I started it on the other thread)

How dare you!! I'm a modern man, in touch with my femenine side! I own a pink shirt you know
