IS-F or IS 350 f-sport
I have a 2008 IS 250. I want to trade it in and get and 2009. Can't decide whether to get an IS-F or IS 350 f-sport
IS-F stock
or
IS 350 f-sport ( w/f-sport performance exhaust, f-sport intake, f-sport clutch & shifter, f-sport sway bars front & rear and f-sport shocks and
springs and f-sport body kit.)
I was at SEMA in vegas and I test drove both the IS-f and the IS 350 with all the f-sport accessories. And, I did notice a difference.
The F-sport 350 drove better except for the h/p in the IS-F.
What ya all think ????

The IS-F takes it to another level with the big engine and of course with its different exterior cues and interior. Its rarer and clearly M3/C63 etc competition.
This is a question I struggle with too. New though, a loaded 350 with all the F-sport parts is pretty much the cost of an IS-F with the deals you can find today.
What are your priorities?

I've owned both. Get the F. It's worth it.
BTW, have fun with the F-Sport clutch and shifter thing...I wouldn't get the 250M.

IS-F would be a better deal... you many things that are like getting the F-sport parts on the IS350.. but u also get a larger engine, better transmission, more supportive seats, ect.

The hood on the IS-F looks ridiculous and the fake quad exhaust and kit are boy racer affectations. I say, get the IS350 and pocket the loot. Most of the F-sport stuff isn't worth the money they want for it, however, I voted IS350 F-sport but would say Is350 x-pack.

This post belongs on m3post....I pray to God that this doesn't become another 335 vs. M3 discussion.
They are both good cars for different reasons....choose what fits your needs closest.

I voted for the 350. You can get all the f-sport goodies here from a vendor for a fairly good deal. Yea the IS-F is a monster and is in a league of its own but it's kinda pricey imho. =/

i say get the ISF for steering feel. i have both and i wish the 350 was more like the F in the steering department. i love my 350, the way it looks, actually a little more than the ISF. mpg is about the same. 8 gears really helps with that. no ventilated seats in the ISF. the ISF seats are more supportive though. if you decide to get the 350, get the x-package. i regret not doing it. Illuminated door sills, stiffer suspension and front spoiler lip. If you are leaning towards the F, prepare yourself for some speeding tickets
