I have purchased a Lexus IS-F I do not have it yet it will be a couple days before it comes in below is a picture of the car and color.

Zero to 60: 4.2 sec

Zero to 100: 9.8 sec

Zero to 150: 24.7 sec

Street start, 5-60: 4.6 sec

Standing ¼-mile: 12.7 sec @ 114 mph

Top speed (governor limited): 172 mph

Braking, 70-0 mph: 159 ft

Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 0.92 g

congrats and all, and really... no "mean tone" here..

NOT a camaro.

'nuff said. specs or no specs.

I have a plan. I will definitely be ahead of any IS-F.

Thanks I hung in as long as I could and will stick around to help you guys out I appreciate your comments and for not flaming me to much. I know it is a sedan but it is a very fast sedan and still get that V8 rumble from the 5.0L.

That's a pretty huge statement. I'm sure some ISF owners have some "plans" too.

Congrats on your purchase. Enjoy!

*Mr. Wyndham* · 05-06-2009, 12:34 PM

A Lexus...

toesuf94 · 05-06-2009, 12:39 PM

Enjoy your Toyota. To each his own I guess.

Thank you for making another Camaro available to those of us who want one.

Rock36 · 05-06-2009, 12:44 PM

Nice car, congrats on the purchase. If anything else, you won't see yourself coming and going on the road all the time. That is worth something all by itself...and those performance stats are nothing to shake a stick at.

I cant believe the blind loyalty that is evident here. Its insane.

Amazing car and beautiful color! Youll enjoy it for sure.

Seriously? This is a Camaro enthusiasts forum. What did you expect us to all say....Gee, nice lexus, wish I would have bought one of those instead of a Camaro?

Nolan, I could tell by the dissapointment in your eye yesterday that you would go this direction. Congrats man. I know you will love the infinity and if you ever want to drive a Camaro all you have to do is go grab the keys anyway. For you and your specific circumstances I think you are actually in a better value situation anyway. And with sincere thanks for all the help and assistance for me and other buyers. By the way watch out for Gypsies! lol

speedster · 05-06-2009, 12:51 PM

Congrats.

Obviously buying a foreign car and telling us on a Camaro site will get you NO sympathy, but I still hope you have fun with it.

If you ever do decide to get a Camaro, come back...

Other than that, we'll see ya at the stoplight...enjoy.
