Daily drive here too! used to get 21 mpg stock car and now down to 18mpg with headers. No issues! Still more fuel efficient and just as powerful (if not a tad more now) as my buddy's e92 M3.

IS F Daily Drive
My 2010 IS F had 47k miles on it until I got hit from behind by a Chevy Tahoe that was unable to control his speed. The IS F is a total loss. I just pre-ordered a 2015 RC F and can't wait for delivery.
I never got tired of driving the IS F on a daily basis. On the highway it was fun to drive and in the city on a nice day I would open up the sunroof all the way and power down all the windows and really enjoy the weather. I always remarked that on the highway I got about 22 mpg even when driving on I-35 between Austin & San Antonio, which is posted at 85 mph. (And yes, I did go over the speed limit for a minute or two...)
The IS F was the best car I ever owned. I never had a problem with it and I think that was due in part to keeping it maintained and the quality of service from the dealer.
So while I'll miss my IS F, I'll always have fond memories and am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the 2015 RC F to create some new ones.
Carpe diem!

Only had mine less than 2 months, but it's my DD. 85k miles on it now, and extended warranty to 130k, so I plan to drive it with no concern for mileage or reliability (like everyone said, it's a Lexus).
Front bumper looks like someone hit it with a bead blaster though, terrible chips, need to get it repainted and clear bra'd.
Only downside if there is one is that it's not Honda Civic gas mileage, I average 18mpg in mixed driving probably 50/50 city/hwy. Not that bad, and if I want 40mpg I have a ZX6R to put me in Prius territory... LOL.
Definitely can't think of a better car that's as quiet, comfortable, reliable, and can roast the tires whenever you feel like it. Ideal DD imho.

I'm at 95% city and getting 13 - 13.7 mpg avg per tank.. How did it drop below the advertised mpg? I mainly keep it in auto (non-sport) and drive slow, because my car doesn't even warm up until I get to my destination.. 
If I reset on a 95% freeway trip, 21mpg. I have a Takeda intake.. I saw someone say their MPG got worse with it.
