I am guessing the IS350 F sport is very uncomfortable to drive daily, as most cars that feels responsive to drive on a track, is not comfortable on the street. A stock ISF is not comfortable on the street already, it feels all soft compare to the IS350 F!

the 300 lbs. weight difference, along with the stiffer suspension + sways on the IS350, and with the fact that I at least felt the IS350 was less nose-heavy (esp. on braking/turn-in) combine to make it feel more at home on a small autocross track. the IS-F isnt really made for small tight tracks like that, and is more of a big track car.

its because the IS350 weighs around 3527 lbs. and the IS-F weighs around 3780 lbs.

I think the biggest differences is from the stiffer suspension and sways, the weight difference and nose heavy bias also very true.
Compare to the IS350 F, the ISF feels all soft and weak.......it is funny, I guess everything is relative
