Default Looking to buy an isf.

Just a quick question. I'm having a hard time finding 2011+ IS-F in red. Did Lexus made 2011+ ISF in red? Thanks

Are you referring to Matador Red Mica?

Don't think you chart is correct:

Don't believe there ever was Cerulean Blue, Deep Sea Mica, Silver Lining Metallic, Tungsten Pearl offered on the ISF
Doesn't List Mercury Metallic, Ultra White, Liquid Platinum which were offered on the ISF

You're looking at the IS F sport section....look at the next chart down....that's the correct information for the IS F colors!

There you go! Check carfax, get some questions/answer to/from the seller, and act fast! Exactly what I had to do when I finally found a clean, low miles SFP F with red interior....took over a year, had to act fast. Trust me, you aren't the only one looking for a red '12+ F. Very rare birds.

Better jump on those if you really want a red 2011+, these cars are rare.

Just check the records and inspect the car in person.

I will say that buying a car out of State could be a bit of hassle.

The 2012 is a New York car, might be worth to go after the 2011 in Monterey, CA since you live out there.

Be prepared, they will play hardball with the price. If you're in CA, get an account with Provident Credit Union and get a car loan, they have excellent rates.

Good luck!

Definitely be ready to act fast. When I found my 2011 USB listed for sale, there was a deposit down on it the night the dealer received it. I agreed to fly up and purchase it that day. Other guy backed out when the dealer called him about it, and I drove home that night. Spent 4 hours at the dealership waiting on them to finish the mechanical inspection (and replace the pads).

Yes sir, definitely my favorite! Nebula Gray Pearl and USB are both sexy with red interiors as well!

Sorry to burst your bubble....but both of those vehicles were sold a while ago. How do I know? I called and asked a few months ago lol

2011+ in red is extremely difficult to find indeed :/
