Only 90K mileage on this 96 RL. Lists for $3500
Wondering if these suffered from the same Honda V6 Automatic issues...

2009 isf for 35k, what do you guys think?
I'd say that is a solid deal considering the rarity. There was a silver one on here a few months ago for mid to high $30K with about 60K kms on it. If it's clean, no claims, local BC car with servicing completed it's definitely in the ballpark of good pricing.

<-----dreams of an IS-F as a daily.

great cars.

not as responsive or fast as the German four doors.... but totally the one to live with long term.

The series II cars with the LSD and the tach in the middle is the one to keep though.

It's always 2008 or 2009 models I see for sale when they come up. I wasn't aware of that mid-gen upgrade. Good to know! There's a guy that has a red one(more of a dark burgundy) down the street from me. It is gorgeous!!

those series II cars command a premium and are so hard to find...


but it is nice to have a proper factory rear end !

Regarding ISF changes.

2010 gets LSD but still old dash and old suspension tuning.

2011+ gets new dash and better suspension tuning along with LSD.

My sister texted me saying she wants to get a daily commuter with a budget of 15k.

she says:

I think it’s important to follow this order.

1. 2010+
2. Reliable
3. V4 or V6 (fuel efficient if possible)
4. Front wheel drive or All wheel drive
5. Nothing too dated (some technology probably bluetooth)

I've been browsing this thread if anyone has suggestions to narrow it down to a few makes/models, please let me know!! Thanks! In the mean time I'll continue browsing here.

Thought I'd drop by to mention that the first 3 are rentals for sale at a Hertz lot, and the last one is for sale at King of Cars, which was a part of an APA investigation to see how used car dealers were measuring up to VSA rules.

Your sister is looking for a Toyota Corolla. Help her buy one.

She isn't going to appreciate any of the rare gems that get posted here.

I had '71 250C (coupe), fuel injected I6, with a 4spd. That 280 is so tempting.

Here is something a tad better than Corolla that might fit the bill.

Or wait for something like this 2008 IS250 AWD, 135K kms, $14,800
