In the coming weeks I'll be putting my ISF (a friend for almost 11 years) up for sale. Nothing will be coming off.

You're stepping up! Congrats and best of luck with the LC.

Will we still be seeing you around these parts of the forum? Almost nobody has the experience with an ISF like you do.

Congratulations Lou!

The last time I was at my dealer they had me sit in one of these. The interior felt so special it left a lasting impression that made me think I could someday make the same move. And the look of the exterior is just as distinctive and special.

Wow not jealous hahah

I’ve never sat in one yet, just in case I fall for it, and never driven one, but to tease my thinking, does it drive as well as the F, does it feel good, does it handle as well or better.. I should just try one out for myself...

interested to hear your thoughts of driving feel compared to the F

Enjoy though!

^^^^Don't want an LC F. I'm a naturally aspirated guy. Blown engines are not for me To me that's unnatural - Old Fashioned I guess

Haven't yet heard the LC500 live, but they sure sing that authoritative V8 baritone on youtube.

OK. Tell that to my Supra...

Seriously, we don't even know if there will ever be an LC F and what engine it might have. IMHO, it should have a twin turbo 2UR-GSE making 600+ hp especially if they're going to keep making the cars heavy.

The wife has been away all week this week, so I've been driving the GS F a lot, and as much as I like the improved tech, I miss the athleticism of the IS F.

Congratz! Im handsdown with the beauty of LC500. The fluidity of the body is so sexy! I had a chance to compare the car during the lexus performance event, they let us drive the rcf, gsf and the LC like a slalom kind of a track. For me, the LC susp, its to soft The looks of the car doesnt transform as you drive like you stool it. During that event i prefer the driving dynamics of rcf and gsf.
