I've had mine for a few years. When I first got it, one of my non car friends said "dude, is that a new Altima?" I just replied with "yup". No point explaining to a non car person what it is. I get comments like that all the time. It's a total sleeper and I love it!
@@sesh3508 yup! My uncle in law is a NASA certified instructor, owns a Porsche GT3 that gets tracked, has a e36 m3 race car he tracks with many other cars in his stable. The man lives and breathes cars and he had no idea the ISF exists.
@@sdlausen1 my brother is a thru and thru car enthusiast and I had to show him what it was. It felt like I was in the fucking twilight zone when he said “What’s that”
The ISF is the original Lexus monster! When it first came out, people didn't know what the hell was going on, because they just got smoked by a Lexus. It didn't take em long to figure out there was a new player in town. I was driving Supra's and MR2's at that time so I most definitely wanted one. I now have a 2015 RCF w/the performance pack. The only performance mod to my F is an Apexi catback exhaust w/resonators. The F cars are awesome . With all the mods to your car, it must be crazy fun to get busy when needed! Not too sure about the new IS F Sport, but the ISF started it all. Thanks for the video. I had a smile on my face through the whole viewing.
I’ve got an old 2006 is 250, it’s still nice and smooth. My next car is either an RX 200T or 350 Then I just keep thinking, an ISF would be a dream. No kids So I have options !!
i have a blue rc350f and absolutely love it, looks exotic and sporty with great reliability, never received so many compliments with a car since i have it
2010+ model years received Torsen LSD from the factory, revised suspension each year from 2011, 2012 and 2013. Also 2010+ had updated infotainment with Bluetooth audio that wasn’t just limited to phone calls. 2011+ included an updated cluster and LED headlights that are infinitely better looking than those awful VLANDs. As such 2011-2014 model years actually go for as much $48K depending on color and miles. Lastly, should’ve mentioned how many miles that 2008 model had since it probably affected the transmission and it’s shifting especially if the owner hasn’t changed the transmission fluid and beats on it like that.
I bought mine in 2017 it was a 2012 model with 12,000 on the clock. It was a show car well kept on Oahu. The previous owner had air ride suspension, which deleted the spare, all the trunks contents. And it has drilled holes that I didn't know about until I picked up the car. Very disappointed, the good thing was it has PPE headers, aftermarket exhaust, intake, and probably programmed icu for throttle response. Once people see the hood shape and fake fender ducts. They know it's not a sleeper car.. There's ISF owners that have full exhaust systems. You can literally hear the Yamaha 2UR-GSE motor roar... The mods can easily be done, but very few for the ISF, there's Wald, Tom's, Novel, and other brands that replicate the original designs, which is a fraction of the price. I enjoy my ISF and posted some RUclips videos on the mods. It's always nice to see other ISF owners enjoying their cars... Guam 🇬🇺 has a handful of ISF rarely see any out, probably on the upcoming import night car show the hidden ISF's will be seen...
I hope there’s not Megan racing coilovers on there. That would be a silly disgrace and embarrassment. The adjustable arms are great, not the coilovers.

The beauty of the ISF is that even some “Car people” don’t know what it is.
You took your emblems off?
Yup, I love that it is about the size of my old 05 Carolla but insane faster and feels WAY bigger and like that car, cops really don't see it.

have an ISF with 225k miles, no issues whatsoever apart from some squeaky suspension bushings! Extreme reliability
I’m on 157k and I look at it more than I look at my wife…👀😬😂😂
@@theoracle2877she find this comment u in the dawg house.. can’t blame you tho.. how many ladies are in the world and how many isf???

They still don't know. I smoke fools and damn near every time they wonder what it is.

awesome, great to see more content!
Really liked the review!
Thank you! Trying to improve the quality overall
Transmission shifts fast. Were you in sport mode? It’s behind the steering wheel next to the snow button.
After I got one of these it made want to never sell it. And I won't.
Agreed 💪🏾 I never get tired of hearing and just even looking at the thing. It’s nice to actually get your dream car.
The e55 AMG gets gapped everytime 😅. I have a FBO tuned ISF. Much more responsive than stock. I see those indy500s lol. Great sticky summer tire
Awesome cars for sure
My isF has bubbles in the coolant tank but there’s no overheat u think it’s the valley plate?
I will never sell mine. yeah, the headlights shows its age which I going to replace but on the road, it still can show off.
What about the new 2023 lexus is 500 v8?
7:19 - "Are you going to thrash it around every single turn?"
Answer: YES
Great review!
Thanks Randy and absolutely!
I need one
Their getting harder and harder to find. But their spread out across the US
They are everywhere for sale in the US.

sleeper? everyone gets scared when this comes around...
I wanna see a Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-Spec go head to head with this
Me too
Would love to review the genesis!
@@downshiftauto326 Hyundai branded or Genesis branded? I have a 2013 R-Spec with less than 60k miles on it. Bone stock other than wheels
@@randyrager1310 doesn't mattet to me both are cool cars!
@@downshiftauto326 I've heard the 2013 and older had a few more ponies and less weight, but the newer ones look nicer IMO
I just saw this car on CarGurus 😂

Putting the gas mileage as a con in a sports car is like complaining about how low a sports car is…..comes with the territory.
When was any IS Lexus a sleeper
The ISF is a sleeper. It looks like a 250
Gotta get a gimbal mannnn
There are F shift knob options
