The pics are just beautiful, I have been a subscriber for the last couple years now after i saw that hilarious video of you and your tahoe pulling up through the taco bell drive thru. I have a 2011 white is250 myself, thought i look at things on the ifs forums and was surprise to see you here. Loving your ISF, but question myself what might you have done to your 250 as well. Keep up the awesome vids Steve! Maybe one day I might be special enough to drive around in your ISF for an hour or so haha

Hey Meade,

How do you feel about the ISF after riding in the LFA? Obviously the LFA is king but any thoughts on the ISF? Maybe appreciate it more or just plain out hate it now haha??

Nice vids btw and thanks for putting them up. I wonder what all the people on the highway were thinking LOL? Probably in utter shock to see an LFA Your ISF looks bad man!

@ meade916

I love your car but in pics the car seems to be too low in the back. Looks rear heavy

thanks!!

i feel just the same about my car as i did before........even better. I know the LFA is far out of my reach, you would have to be a straight up multi millionaire to even consider owning it, and im not. LOL. That car is fantasy, my car is REALITY (in my world).

no joke, i was driving the LFA, enjoying the HELL out of it - but when i looked in the rear view at my own car trailing us (my boy Jay driving), i really loved what i saw. I never really saw my car on the road without me in it, since im always driving it. When it was all said and done, i loved my car even more when it was done. Its still one of the only 2 cars that gets to sport the F logo so that does NOT suck. (F-sport does not count IMO)

in your opinion, not mine.


some people like the look of the rear end jacked up in the air hovering over the tires. I like to tuck my tires. I think its perfect. Thats my opinion and since its my car, its the only one that matters.

It was the best of all possible worlds. Driving a car that everyone else only gets to see in pictures while your car, that most people can only hope to own, is close at hand.

Amen. You've done a great job and you did it your way.

Cool....thanks for the write up. Glad you still love your IS-F.

Im a little off topic here but your IS-F looks clean!! I was wondering who details it for you...If you do it yourself, do you mind recommending any products? I have obsidian as well and its a pain keeping it looking clean.

Thanks,
