Default Is this car worth it

Hi, so I went to a local dealer yesterday to checkout a IS 350 F 2015. It had one owner who had it for 5 month. It has ML spearkers, BSM and navi. It is in gray and has red interior. Everything looks pretty new and it has 11k miles. The only bad part is the mode *** (sports mode) is pretty scratched up. The dealer asked for 44k with tax, title and license. Is it worth it? Thank you guys.

If it is an is350 F-sport your in the wrong forum. This is the IS-F forum (the one with the V8)

Seems kinda pricey for the mileage, but again you're in the wrong forum.

You're in the ISF section.

You should go ask the guys in the 3rd generation IS 250/350 forums.

A moderator will take care of it

If your looking to spend that kind of money you should be looking at the IS-F 2012+, you won't regret it

I know BMW has their M-Sport line, Audi has their S-Line, Cadillac with their V-Sport and Mercedes has their AMG Sport.

How come it seems nobody ever confuses a BMW 328i M-Sport for an M3.

Or an Audi S4 S-Line with an RS4. Or a CTS V-Sport with a CTSV ect..

It seems like people ONLY confuses the IS250/350 F-Sport with the ISF.

Oh sorry giantwhale, I didn't mean to direct that post at you.

I'm just saying in general, not saying you but in general it seems people get confused with F-Sport and full F models.

Because Lexus did a horrible job differentiating the F-Sport line and had only a single F car for 6 years. Hell, I came up on a 350 F-Sport and wondered why this dude's IS-F looked so funny...
