Hey guys im new to this forum. and i just wanted to say Hi!

i am getting a Lexus ISF in about a week or two?.

and at our local dealer over here they have a Black and a Silver one.
but i cant choose between the two i don't know which one i like better i think i like the black better?. but!
i know black if you don't take care of it right it looks horrible after a while (had two black cars in the past). and the silver i like it but it looks a little more Calm i guess you can say ?. but i know silver never looks dirty and you never get swirl marks.. i kind of wanted to get a Vote on what you guys would go for?.

also if some one has a Lease going on if they can tell me what there payment is going for. and how much down?

and if there is any after market more horse power gain stuff out there
like a air intake and Exhaust

thanks guys and i highly appreciate who ever posts back for all the information

Thanks!
Mitch

1080 a month is not bad for 0 down i think.
lease is really the way to go.
Congrats on the purchase! :)
Rush Nut... 0 down 1080 a month on a lease.

Thanks bigmike isf... i appreciate it..

and Devil Dog.... Thank's so much bro borla is a exhaust system i love i just Sold my 05 Corvette with a borla cat back and SLP air intake. i sold my corvette because i am getting married in the next 3 months. and i got a kid so i needed a 4 door car. but if Borla is making a Cat back system. i am more then likely going to go with borla for sure. i wish i could put some Borla Exhaust tips on the car but sense the tips are connected to the bumper i don't know if that would work?. lol or if you can even change them at all?
heres a picture of my tips on my Vette

wish i could get something like that on the isf.

but i cant lie i miss my vette though but another reason i sold it was because selling the car is a joke the price goes down on corvettes like crazy
if i would of waited a year more i dont think i could of got any money back at all on that car wish i would of leased it.

Well Thank you guys and sorry for talking so much but thats something i do. lol

Thanks guys for all the post's i really appreciate it.

leased an ultrasonic blue . 2k down 1018.00 per month . included in that payment is the tire and wheel protection which was 40.00 per month . 39 month lease. its well worth it i live in new jersey where the roads are not the greatest .lots of potholes.
ehh not sure if 2k down 1018 a month is that good.
i mean i got quoted 5k down and payment in the 800s! with that money factor i would have calculated around mid/high 900s for the payment with 2k down.
WP, I'm not sure what bank is giving the IS-F a Residual Factor of 51% after 3 years, because I know it's not Lexus....
Nj, that payment is right there where it should be.
I haven't seen to many silver IS F's around. I would go with silver, although black looks mean...just prepared to put alot of effort keeping BLACK PAINT clean.

This is a picture of my car taken two weeks ago in Florida. I just love the color and it's easy to mantain and stays cool in the heat.
I understand that less silver ISF cars are made than most any other colors. I read this somewhere but forget which document I was reading.
I have to agree that the silver color does look great.

im not sure what bank it is. i got quoted 52 percent residual factor after 3 years.
does that seem high or low to you andy?

and im not going to get into a price debate with you in yet another thread. seems like i can get the car cheaper than you can offer it. great for me. please stop trying to tell me its not true just because you cant seem to offer that price. just because you want to make more per car doesnt mean everyone else SHOULD sell the ISF for a certain price because fact of the matter is, every dealership is different. back to the thread.

I am selling this car...it only has 1220 miles total. Always kept in an air conditioned garage. It is in pristine condition and loaded with all the accessories, including factory ordered Ipod connection. I am 67 years old and have nine cars and this is one that I am selling. Perfect in every respect, no dings or scratches. Like new

My price is $49,900....... Check out the cars listed on Edmunds or any other site...This car is the best value with the lowest miles.
Not a bad price OLD. I picked up my Starfire pearl in April with 1.4K for 48.5K .Still loving the car!

Thanks for your comments and interest.... I really love this car, but something has to go. I have nine cars and if you were 67 years old you would understand. I can only drive one at a time.. My wife calls this stuff garage furniture. It's a hobby for me, but its getting a little out of hand.
I already have some interest by a couple of people but nothing for sure yet.
We'll see, I'm in no rush. Just putting the word out there!
