IF you want to go fast and have a real sports car get an F if you dont care that much about the speed why change.

Owning an ISF means and feels that you are in the big leagues competing against its class ie the M3, C63 and the likes. I am sure right currently, when you see these cars, you look away or avoid their stares. With the F you will look them in their eyes and would say..let's go..

Get the F..If you need tech gadgets and apps like bing and pandora get an iphone-5..you shouldn't be messing with that while your driving anyway. you don't even need to turn on the radio in the F.
There is no better song than the 5.0 liter V8 at Wide Open Throttle. You don't get that on any year IS 250/350
I don't care what mod you do to it.

If you're ok with the equity hit you will take on going from an 11 to an 08, then go for it. Sometimes THE car is worth it.

Hahaha! I don't know if you meant for that to be comedy, but it sure painted a funny mental picture for me. Almost like something from an SNL spoof or bad commercial.

This could now turn into a Fast and Furious quote thread which would be awesome. I will add my fav line in the first Fast movie:“He's got nitrous oxide in his blood and gasoline in his veins“.

Yeah, this is melodramatic, corny and might be comedic but it delivers the point..F is for Fast and the Furious.
