Got a friend who works at Sewell Lexus who also said they are bringing back the ISF, but like mentioned above...all 2014+ IS are based off the GS.

I love how everyone has some kind of "connection". My guy told me this... A sales guy told me this. A technician told me this.... The "head hancho" told me this... just shut up with all of it already. So what...you got his business card. All that does is prove to me even more that he's nothing because top level executives know how to keep their mouths shut.

I've worked with Calty Design Research in Newport Beach, CA and when I was there working, I'd constantly have an escort with me. I'd have to go through certain hall ways at different times because a prototype and/or clay model could be in one of the hall ways as they rolled it around from design studio to design studio. I would visit their facilities 6-8 times per year, and in that entire time when they were designing the CT200h, I never even saw a model of it because that's secret information. Just like the if / when there is another IS F...it's secret information.

No one knows crap and it's all speculation. Even the pics of the test mule we saw recently...so what...it has 4 exhaust pipes now all of a sudden it's an IS F? It's got bigger brakes now it's an IS F? IS350 has 4 piston brakes too...sure it may not be Brembo, but does it say Brembo in any of the pics that have recently been released? The test mule is exactly...it's a mule...we don't know what it is...it could just be an IS350 F-Sport coupe...but is it actually going to be sold as a TRUE F car...that we don't know and at this point, no one knows.

Like I said before and I'll say it again...any stupid dealer, dealer owner, dealer sales manager, fleet manager or sales person that tells you an IS F is coming has zero credibility, and they're just a plain STUPID sales person. A sales person is someone that tries to sell you something TODAY. Not tell you about something that is in the future, to PREVENT a sale TODAY. Smart sales people get you to buy an IS350 F-Sport TODAY...then have you coming BACK in 12 months to trade in your IS350 F-Sport for an IS F...two sales instead of one...especially if that one is HEAVILY under speculation.

All of you guys that think you know something, don't know nothing because your source where you got this from also knows NOTHING.

Like Joe-Z says...good job "not naming names" but I got his business card....LOL...pathetic.
