Wish I knew the answer to this. I wish the F had LED mirror turn signals, LED DRLs, LED interior lighting from the factory, and the ability to close all windows and sunroof with the push of a button ( you can open all of them with a button but not close).......

A few more of the pics I took. I am thinking about mods, think I am going to get a Joe Z intake. Also talked to a few places about getting a clear bra installed, was told I can get 24" up the hood, bumper, A pillars, partial roof, running boards and luggage area for about 900. I know I definitely want the bumper and hood not sure about the rest, any suggestions?

I'm really liking the new rims! They definitely look lighter than 2008. Plus, they're wider so you can more easily upsize in case you want to track!

no isf has turn signal mirrors however you can buy the ones painted your color from sewell for around 500 and then install them yourself. I did it on my 07 IS (two years before they had the indicators). I even did a DIY on the 2IS fourms. The only difficult parts are getting the wire for the signal from the door into the car and then there is a certain wire that needs to be swapped on the right side harness. If I had to do it today I could do it in an hour but the first time I took my time and it took me a day to complete. I am considering doing it now except I dont want to look like a 2IS with an ISF conversion

Hopefully you were at a friends place when you took those pics.

The first mod you should do to the IS-F is get a garage for it!!!!!

Yeah was at a friends house about to take her to pick up her car from being serviced, however my townhome does not have a garage or covered parking, been in the process of looking for a new place just haven't found the right place to move yet.

farpetrad, Beautiful ride!! Congrats on the purchase

You mind telling the out the door price tag on the car? I'm looking at getting a 2012 IS-F and would like a good idea of what I'll see. Did you add on any options?

The sticker price at the dealership was 68,800. However I leveraged my father in the negotiations as he has purchased 4 different Lexus's from this dealership so he has a great relationship with them. Doing online searches I found autotrader listing a 2012 black ISF for 62,500 at another dealer in Atlanta, told them I was not willing to pay anymore than that, they wanted 63,500 minimum so we said we were going to the other dealer to checkout that car, which they instantly caved to and said they would do 62,500. Car has the upgraded nav package With the ML audio, parking assist, the pre collision system, cargo net, trunk mat and first aid kit lol. After tag tax and title it was about 68k. Pretty much every other isf listing on autotrader within 800 miles of Atlanta were all 68,800.
