I picked up my daughter from school today, and on the way home I came upon a brand new SGM IS-F on the road. I pulled along side to check out the car, and noticed that the driver was at least 80+ years old His 80+ year old wife was sitting next to him!! I was next to him for probably 10 minutes at least. He was the slowest car on the road by far, and every one was passing him I thought it was very funny that this old guy was rockin a IS-F, and driving it like it was a 4 cylinder Camry!

omg so I spotted a Lexus IS-F in Lubbock of all places. I knew Alderson Lexus here got three, but never did I think I'd actually see on one the streets. Last night when I was going to see H&K (which was amazing btw) I saw a white one at the movie theaters.
I just wish I could've parked next to it.

I saw an Ultrasonice Blue on my way home from work, he was going NorthBound on I-75 just passed the Pines Blvd exit, I was going southbound so I couldn't get close enough for a photo or a thumbs up. He was easy to spot on the oppsosite side of the highway the color gave it away. It was cool and tragic at the same time to see another Ultrasonic Blue beside myself I was hoping to be special.....lol Take care guys happy hunting.

Spotted a Silver IS-F exiting a parking lot here in Great Neck on Long Island. Turned onto Park Place and was turning onto Grace Avenue, no idea if it is anyone on the board, but looked nice! First time seeing an IS-F on the road anywhere myself.
