Default my father bought a GSF on monday

so, yesterday i go over to my dads to find him pull in with his ultrasonic blue GSF i had the opportunity to drive it today and it feels much more powerful and on its feet then his previous RCF. The RCF had this lag in the transmission when he wanted to floor the car, and the GSF does not seem to have that what so ever. Overall, i think this is a great car but is a little over priced at $88000 but we got a deal with $10000 off so it was $78000. ill insert pics here

















here is the previous RCF he had since jan. 2015, it was good run

Pretty Sweet deal @ 10k Off.


Pics look kind of creepy with Marilyn Manson on the screen.... loll

This is the New s--t .. would be a pretty fitting song for a first drive though.

Love the color combo...superman

10k off, now lexus has this price competitively

Do you think you could share the bits of that contract showing the sale price so we all could have some discount ammunition with the dealers?

It's not insane price, it's what's needed to move the GSF

Look at rcf , even at 59k (74 msrp), they are finally moving some



Congrats to your dad. Blue with red interior and orange with red interior are my favorite GSF colors

The GSF copies the RCF engine and tranny, why would there be any difference beside the fact that it weighs 100lbs more?

Just noticed your signature.. You got a lot of Lexus lovers in your family.

Will you be modifying your IS/GS?

insane as in it's only been 4 months or so since the car came out? this is far sooner than the time line on the rcf for a 15k drop in msrp.

Your $88,000 MSRP GSF has an invoice of ~$83,000.

At $10,000 off the selling price ($78,000), youre ~$5000 under invoice, which is somewhat believable plus TTL.

At $78k OTD, the car would have to be sold for $10,000 under invoice, which makes absolutely no sense.
