Very cool.

BTW, the analog speedo goes to 210 MPH, not 200. (not that it really matters but just wanted to point that out)

Correct. Also, no 2IS has folding rear seats.

Really enjoyed the review! Saw it the day it was posted this week. Here is another one that was done just this week as well. Nice to see the platform is finally getting the recognition it deserves, especially being such a great value in the used car market.

Also check his other video reviews. He did an 800HP CTS-V awhile back, what a monster!

Here's the actual ISF he reviewed [2nd Vid]. Not a bad price price considering it's in CA funds

25,900CA = 18,878.51US

Now I understand what people are talking about regarding the 08-11 suspension being stiff. You can see him bouncing around in the second vid.

^^^I think what the reviewer meant was that the IS-F is a bit of sleeper. While it doesn't scream racecar outwardly, it does get a second glance once people realize that it's an F

The price actually isn't bad. I figure it hasn't sold because this dealer isn't in the best part of town; it's mostly cash for cars types of dealers where this F is at, ha.

It's always fun to watch these car reviews and know that's the car you actually own. Just makes it fun to see other people talk highly of the car.
