You're correct. I'm from Canada and there was never a F-Sport package for 2010. The first year for the F-Sport package was 2011.

Looks like a regular 250 to me! Maybe the previous owner modded it up with F sport parts then sold for a 350 or maybe ever a real F?

You definitely bought a regular 250. I would like to know the list of F-Sport parts installed because you might of payed too much. Is 40K before taxes?


Quick Reply: IS 250 or ISF 250
