Hello all 1st post -need some advice
I'm look at a new IS 350 F sport, or a 2011 IS-F or a 2013 GS 350 F sport. The IS-F is the cheapest of the 3 it has 30k miles(I think) the GS has only 612miles . Just really not sure the money seems all about the same give or take a few thousand. Can some people give their input?
Oh - going from a 2010 G37s coupe.
Thanks
David

If that's all the information you can provide, I have no advice for you. Do you drive other people/kids around a lot? Are you looking for a performance car, a daily driver? How long do you plan to own the car?

Sorry about that , I have a 3yr old. I've been driving for about 28 years and had about 35 cars and bikes. My wife *****es every time I change so this will have to last a couple of years, it will be a daily driver.

The pursuit of F
Daily driver and 3-year old are key criteria. With this in mind and "money no-object", '13 GS first, '14 IS a close second, '11 IS F a far last. GS has the largest back seat and getting the child in and out of the seat will be easiest. Forget the ISF as the rear seat is very tight especially if you're a tall driver with your child behind you, he'll constantly be kicking your seat. '13 GS and '14 IS are also more comfortable as a daily driver with bigger trunks and better fuel economy (if that matters to you). ISF is a gem of a car but would not be a right fit for you IMO.

Thanks for the info, my wife said the back seat was smaller in the isf. Going to drive the GS in the AM, I'm just afraid it will feal like a mom car.

The backseat is a lot larger in the 2014 IS than the 2011. I have two carseats in the back of mine. 1 rear and 1 forward and they fit a lot better in the 2014 than my 2013.
