Besides the guy in the other thread who went ISF->GTR->ISF, who else is on number 2 or more of owning multiple ISFs?
I bought my first IS-F in 2009, a 2008 Matador Red pre-owned, got a great deal but had to part with it shortly after (only 8 months) Ive missed that car greatly since 2010, and I just now got into the position to buy another so I picked up a 2011 USBM with Alpine seats the other day! IS-F # 2, and I love it more than the first.
Im very excited to be back in the F family, as its BY-FAR my favorite car I've ever owned!
On a side note, I posted a thread back then about re-sale values down the road under my old user-name, and i've now found they are indeed holding their value, and possibly going up! I got this 5yr old 2011 with more miles on it, for almost the same price I did a 2008 when it was only a year old and only 8k miles on it ! Not sure if it was the great deal I got back then, or paid too much now, either way Im excited to be back! I plan on keeping this one for quite a while and hoping it will hold its value or even go up more, similar to how Integra Type Rs or Supras have gone up. I think a clean un-messed with nice example will be be worth a pretty penny in 10-20 years (maybe I'm biased haha)
I'm on my #2 2014 IS F bought it in may 2015, #1 was 2008 bought it on 08/2009 and sold it on 07/2011 due to financial hardship lol...was drooling when stopped by at carmax duarte looking at the white GS F there, but able to talk myself out of it.
Beautiful color! Definitely my favorite right next to Matador Red! I don't even have my first F yet but once I do get it and if I ever have to get rid of it, id probably be back again too lol
Hahaha, I can see that.... But someone take my car and kick me off this forum if I did that to this car. My plan is to leave it bone stock, maybe lower it a touch but I want this car to be basically like brand new 10 years from now. Treating it kind of like a collectors item ( for now) haha! I hope to be one of those guys that has a bone stock low miles ISF years from now, much like the unicorn turbo Supras and integra type Rs today. I don't want to be the guy that "wished I would have bought one back then" or the guy that modifies it too much and wish I hadn't and regret doing stuff to a perfectly stock unmolested car that would be worth much more.
Not a knock on people that modify their cars, I'm all for it, and go back and forth on if I'll do anything to it.
That's why I'm on number 2, because I already regretted getting rid of mine in 2009, because I paid the same price for that one as I did this one... I would have had a car worth what I bought it for 7 years ago.... Oops
Two for me, I'm on my second 2011! The first one was a Smoky granite mica. It actually grew on me thoughout time. Heck! It got more attention than my Obsidian. When the obsidian came around although it was the same year, it was the perfect color combo I was looking for. Not to mention the stock condition it was in. The SGM came a bit too modified for my taste.
I've got two in the driveway. Bought a USB one for myself that the wife quickly hijacked. I got so little seat time in it, I had to buy another for myself!
Im also on my 2nd ISF. My first one was a smokey granite and got totaled after being T-Boned by a 16 year old doing an illegal u-turn. I only had it for about 2 months.
2 months later I came across my usbm... My favorite ISF color, so I'm much happier now lol
I have (2) 2008 IS-F's still. I bought the first one in 2008 brand new at the dealership. My wife proceeded to take the car away from me after 2 years and would not give it back to me.
I had to out and hunt for my second one which it took over one year to find.
