the F is going up for sell IMMEDIATELY! well.... maybe after a year or 2 of these new toys being on the market ... i love some good deprecation and dealer rebates for cars that sit.
I'm with you here, lol. 2-3 years after release, one man's trash will be my treasure!! Lol.
Highly doubt I'll sell my F though. Unless the new one sounds as glorious as this 5.0L V8 and has very little production numbers....then Maybe I'll consider. Hell, I still have my IS300 after 11 years...I tend to hold on to things I like and not just ditch them for no good reason. Just add on to the collection!

Hence my 25 year old Supra. I have entertained selling it a couple of times, but never could part with it. IS F is getting that way too. At least 2IS parts aren't e code yet, but no doubt it is coming. Which reminds me, need to order another set of floor mats before those are history.
And yes, indeed, I would seriously consider at TT 4 liter V-8. The GS F isn't bad, but another 75 hp wouldn't be anything to complain about.
Yes. And if Lexus wants any hope of competing with the midsize german supersedans, this is the way they have to go. The GSF is great in its current form, but is a far cry from the E63/M5 in performance.
Agreed.
I guess im the opposite of most, I love turbocharged performance. Yeah NA performance is dope and I do love the sound but I love turbo power potential and extra horse that could provide I don't see why not. Especially on a platform like the GSF
No I would not. Ask anyone with a BMW with the turbo V8 what it costs to get simple work done with all the plumbing in the V. It's a pain in the butt and all that heat up top there is not so great either. There is no replacement for displacement.
Everyone I know with a TTV8, which would include my uncles 50i X5 M Sport loves it. Makes crazy power with a simple JB4. Let the dealers worry about maintaining it. Ditch it after warranty
