It’s more just interesting cars for sale on the internet, and that’s sweet. If it was good buys these days we’d have maybe 1 post a month and it t wouldn’t be a good buy anymore after a bidding war.
The good buys are out there still, but they're gone in between the time someone spots it and makes a post of here..
Ads posted here are ones RS members don't want ('sloppy seconds' ) I mean seriously, if you were interested in a car, last thing you want to do is post it here. I wouldn't.
Really fun car, but you had to really rev it up everywhere you went and shift it quickly. Shift around 4k RPM to keep up with traffic. I remember following my GF to some event and she was driving her truck with a V8. I kept having to keep it at like 4500+ RPM just to keep up!
But it was tons of fun. Coming from a GTI with a VR6, that car was hard to learn to drive stick on since you needed so much clutch slippage to get it going smoothly but I eventually got really good at it.
Revved really freely, rev matching was fun, and it was just a joy to own. I miss it.
For about 1500 dollars more than the Corolla S, you got a 2ZZ-GE, rear disc brake upgrade, upgraded gauges, 6-speed manual, bigger wheels and better tires (summer Michelin tires), lowered 0.5", suspension mods, and more. Cable throttle!
Fucking Toyota puts different engine and trans and suspension and strut brace and lowered it and upgraded the rear brakes and the door sills said "XRS" on them...and then put "Corolla S" floormats in it! LOL
Picked it up to learn manual. Thanks RoverT and his buddy to go with me to bring this home!
If the tire pressure monitor is still on, there's a way to Google how to turn it off, there's a certain button sequence or duration to reset it properly but I can't remember it now. But it should go off.

Thanks. Previous owner put in some Matrix 16s on there. 205/55r16 tire size when it should have been 195/55r16.
Another “classic” going to the moon… remember when these cars were an oddity you might consider with $5k burning a hole in your pocket before making a different choice?
Fast..... Cool, weird, expensive, those are all those but fast.

Do they use tmps sensors? Maybe that’s missing.
The wheels are stock XRS, but I'm not sure about tire size. Bigger tires all around shouldn't trip the tire sensor anyways whether if it's TPMS on wheel or ABS set.
For sale is my 2008 Lexus IS-F. This is the first Lexus V8 Sports Sedan branded as an F model. A combination of luxury, performance, and reliability.
I am the second owner since 2012. The first owner leased this car from Seattle Lexus for four years since new (first owner was an older gentlemen and had only driven it for 8000 miles). This car was then purchased by myself from Seattle Lexus and therefore it is a US import. I have all the Canadian import paperwork required when I purchased it from 2012.
This is my weekend/summer car hence the low mileage. The car is always parked in a garage and is not driven during the winter. I have had 0 issues with this car. Everything is original OEM. This car has never been modified or track driven.
Mileage: 19, XXX miles (~30, 000 km)
Accidents: 1 claim under $2k due to being rear ended, cosmetic damage and only the rear bumper was replaced. Note there is a small scratch on the rear bumper.
Maintenance:
Oil Changes always done annually with Mobile 1 Synthetic
Coolant flushed and changed
