Default Just bought an 08 ISF

Hi guys, I've been lurking behinds the scenes on here for a few months now researching and learning about this car. I'm coming from a bmw 650i as my daily and the biggest thing for me was reliability which obviously landed me here lol. My other car which I've just recently sold was my 94 acura legend coupe which has been my baby since I got my license 13 years ago. I used to consider myself an acura/honda guy but they haven't built a car worth a second look in a long time. I'm from MA and rarely see isf's in person or for sale. One came up for sale in CT yesterday for $22,900 with 115k on it in starfire pearl white which was exactly what I wanted. So I met the sales manager there today even though they were closed and the rest is history!

looks clean, congrats, even with those miles you will have a good car for a long time with not many issues, do you plan on doing any mods to it?

Nice pick. Pretty dirt cheap. I came from a Bimmer too because of space and reliability. Was sick of giving BMW my hard earned money at least twice a year for stuff outside of regular maintenance.

Welcome to the F family! Even with the higher mileage, I know you'll have many more great memories and fun twists and turns your way. Simple maintenance is all this beast needs, and as long as you take care of her, she'll do the same with you. Have fun and enjoy your F!

Very nice & congrats on your new ride. Starfire white is perhaps one of the few whites I like.
