As an ISF owner. I can tell you that this is an incredible vehicle. Power, grace and reliability. They just don't make cars like this anymore. I'm currently on my second one. Great video! Please do more Japanese cars.
@@rjj00 I made the tragic mistake of saleing it, thinking the grass was "greener on the other side". Shortly after purchased an E92 M3. The E92 is a fantastic vehicle but can NOT hold up as well as the ISF in reliability, interior quality components etc. The Lexus is superior.
Nice man, I'm also on my second. Got the 08 when I could afford it, and the 12 later. The 11+ are better polished examples and handle way nicer too. No issues with my first, the new owner put PPE headers+ exhaust on it and it sounds glorious. My 12 is FBO tuned.
@@juan9798 I'm just looking for a naturally aspirated V8 and both the E92 M3 and IS-F came to my attention. I'd guess the M3 would drive better (sportier) and the engine might be more f6n due to 8.5k redline?
It still stuns me how we don’t see more of these RCFs, ISFs, GSFs, LCs on the road. Marvelous sound and not unusable fast like everything else these days.
This is an amazing car6and personally I prefer it more than the m3 of its generation. But let's be real, it is NOT a M3 killer. Not even close. It beats the M in everything but performance but still not a killer.
I love this generation of V8 small sedans so much... m3 e92, rs4 b8, c63 w204, is-f... are wonderful cars and it’s sad to say they are not fast these days😞
This lexus is one of the best lexus's ever made it's quite quick at least it quicker than the lc 500 but what lexus imagine going 270 on the autobahn in this thing
Let's be honest: We all know, that most of the rival cars are faster than the ISF. Especially the M3, not to mention the M4. HOWEVER, good look finding any other performance car that drives like brand new with more than 300'000 km on the clock. The ISF is an absolut beast, because it will reliably perform when other cars have been molten down for years. There are examples of ISFs with more than 500'000 km that pull just like they did on day one. To me, this makes the ISF one of the best perfomance sedans of all time. I would buy it anytime over an M3, C63, RS5 etc.
I had an IS-F and it was great, especially the noise. I've now got a GR Yaris and it feels a bit quicker 0-130 but above those speeds the IS-F comes in to its own as you can see in the 100-200 times.
Oh no. Not to discourage you but... Why did you get a Yaris, I know it's a GR but it's still a Yaris... 😬 Despite how fast it is, they aren't a car that is likeable
@@adamdistortion8810 Plus he didn't swap a ISF for a Yaris gt 🤣, ISF puts rings around the Yaris, I think he's just trying to get attention about his Yaris because he thinks he fucked up in his own head but he tries to make it sound like it was the best decision to us 🤣
Please more Toyota kings! I love it! I wanted the IS before... now I tend more towards the GS450h or LS600h for more daily driver capability. Thank you very much!!
Nice recording ! I enjoyed it very much because i own a 2010 IS-F as my daily to work etc. Except for fast driving,this beast is also very suitable to cruise on much lower speeds,not so nervous like "steroid-cars" .It's very nice to know that you have much power under the hood and sometimes i flush the second intake ;-)
The LS460 which can be had for basically peanuts these days can hit max speed of 283km/h. It has same transmission as this and a smaller size 4.6L but is the same engine. It isn't geared as low which makes it have the higher speed.
Bro this with intake exhaust work ecu retune with big cams .lots of these in usa badass runing 3.6 to 100 and have monster topend keep pull brutal sound with the mods i tell. Rev limiter is the best part

It still needs an aftermarket exhaust though. A titanium one would sound godly

It’s nice seeing you shift in manual mode cause the shifts are so much faster in this mode
Omg...one of the best sounding stock v8s ever made
You can actually see the fuel gauge needle tick down twice during the top speed run
Fuel is a fluid and it sloshes in the tank
@@fry.master most cars account for that it’s the amount of fuel being used by a v8 cmon man
I have an IS350 but these things are absolutely thrilling to ride in. The gearbox is insanely quick at shifting too.

That "life support machine sound effect" to remind you to shift up...
