edit: producer beat me to it.

Hard to judge this as a "good buy" but a 2010+ IS-F is rare in of itself. It looks like it ticks all the boxes being local, claim free, etc. My dream daily. https://vancouver.craigslist.org/nvn...861717297.html |

^ this one has been for sale for quite awhile now, like you said not many for sale so it’s a bit hard to judge but in my opinion his asking price is too high and that’s why it hasn’t sold.

I got mine for significantly less although it's a 2009 so doesn't have the updated headlights or LSD (only in 2010+) and one of the other local guys got his 2012 same color as the ad for about the same price as posted but 3 years ago and from Alberta.

^Isn't the suspension significantly upgraded for 2011? I see the earlier cars go for low 30s all day, hard to justify spending 50% more for that one

Also the tires are slightly wider on the later years as well. Those aren't as big selling points in my eyes as most people swap in aftermarket suspension and wheels anyway and to your point, you can get an earlier year one easily for low 30's and have some money to customize to your choosing so you're not wasting the factory 'upgrades'. The LSD is definitely the bigger selling point for later years.

Great info smaggs. Thank you. Agreed that the asking price is a bit steep but still a $40K+ car all day being a 2012. The red 2009 for sale for $34,000 is nice but honestly I would pay $10k extra for 30k less kms, 3 years newer and a more bland color. The deep red is pretty nice though.
I'm seriously considering this car. Should I open at $40k and see where it takes me?

I wouldnt compare it to the red ones price as that one is over priced too IMO. Not that it means much but an 08s KBB is 22k if I remember correctly, ahah. 40k for the '12 would be a good deal though. I'll shoot you a PM with some more info

Cheap V8 fun
Before anyone asks, yes, the Northstar got a bunch of reliability improvements when it changed to a RWD configuration.

I really like the ISF, I also really like the E9X M3... if the ISF was made with a manual box I would have bought one long ago.
Note that the rear seats of the ISF do not fold down, this is an issue for some people.

Lexus sedans unfortunately do not have fold down rear seats. Not sure about the latest models but the older ones never had it which is a bit of a pain.
