Thinking of switching to IS-F
So I have a 2007 IS350 which I am just starting to modify. Now I'm thinking I should just buy an IS-F. So a few quick questions before I start poking around at dealers.
I have some 19 Forgestar rims showing up this week. Is the wheel fitment on the IS-F the same as the 350?
Is 43,000 a decent price for a 2008 w/ 30,000 miles?
Anything I should watch out for?
TIA

A faster version of my car? I've driven one before and loved it. I was more looking A> would my wheels fit , B> any severe issues with the 2008 , C> Is that price decent?
I may pull the trigger today.

Reliability-wise, the IS-F should be just as good as your 350. No major issues to report.
Those wheels should fit fine on the F. Its stock wheels are as follows:
19x8 +45
19x9 +55
$43k for a 2008 with 30k miles is rather high. I'd look for $40-41k if certified and $37-38k if not.

Cabin room is not that large, although it shouldn't be that much of a difference from your 350. 39.5k is a great deal. Glad you were able to negotiate down. I don't recall too many issues with reliability, except for maybe one on the forums. But overall, it's a great car and you won't regret it. Enjoy!
