I have driven one of those IS-f's and its a decent performer but I call BS on the 1/4 mile time they claim. It pulled fairly strong, but not that strong.

whenever I think of this car I think of BMW m3 and Audi S5 since they are in the same performance and price range... sorry but I would take the m3 or the S5 over this anyday

Its a nice car but its still just a souped up toyota

nissan is really the only asian car manufacturer I would consider buying from... GTR, 370Z

but hey at least you have a nice new car... the best part is that new car smell

I agree it looks terrible. Thankfully it's not standard and not touted as a feature of the car! First thing I would do is get tips to make the transition. I don't even think you could do that with the IS-F as they don't even line up!

Price for an IS-F starts higher than a corvette. Grats on your purchase though. Enjoy it =)

Sports cars have two doors.

About the economy if we don't smarten up and start shopping at home when possible we are in grave danger of losing our quality of life. If we keep giving our money to other countries it's only a matter of time until they take over. That's a fact. At home products might cost a little more but at least we will have a job so we can buy what we need.

I don't know, I just think that if you work for the company, you should at least help support it. Driving another automaker's product is almost like saying you don't have confidence in the company.

Then again, very few people share my train of thought these days...just look around on the roads...
