Are there any specific problems I should look out for when shopping for an ISF?

I'm in SC if anyone knows of an available car. Am watching several on line. One in Cali, but I'm not ready to pay $55k.
Great choice for MY. Not as prone as the previous years, but do check for coolant leaking or headlight bubbling. Just something to be cautious about. I thought buying MY13, I would be safe from these, but it has happened and has been fixed via warranty. Other than that, it really is a reliable car during your time of ownership.

What happened to your IS F that needed to be fixed?
Besides the headlight bubbling.

Im looking at the 08/09 years, i havent read anything to look for on the drive train.
Now I'm worried.
