Up for sale is my mint 2010 Lexus IS-F.  It's finished in the best color, Matador Mica Red over black leather interior.  The car is fully loaded except for park assist.  It has been dealer maintained it's entire life and had every oil change done at a Lexus dealer.  Absolutely no issues and has been remarkably reliable with zero issues in the time i've owned it.  I'm extremely anal retentive and pride myself on keeping my cars very clean.  The leather interior is cleaned and conditioned every other week.  The car is washed once or twice a week using the two bucket method and a foam gun to ensure no swirls or scratches are put into the paint during cleaning.  As you can see from the pictures the paint is gorgeous and looks like a red mirror.  It gets a paint correction every 6 months to keep it looking perfect.  In the sun it's truly incredible and turns heads.  By far the best color for the IS-F (though i'm obviously biased).  Car includes 2 sets of floor mats (one brand new) and one original set as well as a ISF sunshade from Sewell Lexus.

With so many 08 and 09 IS-F's on the market at sub 40k prices it's prudent to explain why the 2010 is worth the extra coin for those who haven't researched these cars.  The differences for the 2010 IS-F are as follows:
  • Hard Drive Based Navigation (Upgradeable via USB with Lexus Map updates).  Not DVD based like the old ISF.  Interface and maps are much more high-res.
  • USB/Ipod/Bluetooth Integration
  • True Mechanical LSD (not "e-LSD" that is terrible).  The acceleration from a dig or out of corners is entirely changed.  Transforms the car on and off the track (though my car has never been tracked).
  • Revised Suspension
  • New Sport Steering Configuration
  • Black Interior Trim Around Navigation
  • New Wheel Design
Overall the 2010's are the first revised version of the IS-F and a distinct upgrade compared to the 2008/9.  The 08/09's were also susceptible to navigation failure as well as waterpump leaking.  The waterpump on this car was pre-emptively replaced by Lexus with the new version under warranty to protect against this possibility in the future. 

The car is being offered up with a low reserve realistic for a car with these amount of miles and in this condition.  If you want a cared for car that will give you no trouble this is the one.  It is enthusiast owned and only being sold to move into a GTR.  I truly love this car and it's a spectacular all-rounder that can hang with the M3 and C63 without the reliability nightmare and maintenance costs and liability.  I work from home so it's not daily driven by only taken out as more of a weekend car.  It's garage kept, warmed up fully, and only used in manual mode after the transmission is warmed up to "2 bars".  This is not a car that has beaten or abused in any way. 

Car is available for inspection by 3rd party or PPI.  A 1000.00 non-refundable deposit is due via Paypal or wire within 24 hours of the auction close.  I reserve the right to end the auction for a local sale.

Lexus leads J.D. Power's Vehicle Dependability Study for 2021

Thu, Feb 18 2021

J.D. Power's latest Vehicle Dependability Study is out, and, not surprisingly, Lexus sits at the top for the ninth time in the last 10 years. Right behind Lexus is Porsche, followed by Kia, which is the highest-ranked mass-market brand in the study. Genesis, last year's top-ranked brand (in its first year included in the results), fell from first to eighth, though the G80 sedan did earn an award in its midsize luxury segment. The Porsche 911 was called out as the Most Dependable Model by J.D. Power for the second time in the last three years. The vehicles being studied are from the 2018 model year, which means owners have had three years to get to know their cars and trucks. It's notable that this year's study shows a marked improvement in overall vehicle dependability as tracked by J.D. Power. The overall level of problems, scored by the number of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), declined by 10% compared to last year.  "The study results validate what we have known for some time," said Dave Sargent, vice president of global automotive at J.D. Power. "Automakers are making increasingly dependable vehicles — but there are still some problem areas that need to be addressed and some warning signs on the horizon." Tesla makes its inaugural appearance on the Dependability Study, though its score of 176 PP100 isn't official. Tesla is the only automaker that has chosen not to grant J.D. Power permission to survey its owners in all 50 states. As we've pointed out in the past, the Vehicle Dependability Study includes eight major vehicle categories grouped by J.D. Power as follows: audio/communication/entertainment/navigation (ACEN); engine/transmission; exterior; interior; features/controls/displays (FCD); driving experience; heating, ventilation and air conditioning; and seats. All issues reported by owners are all tracked equally, which means a problematic phone pairing procedure dings an automaker's rating the same as a blown engine or transmission. And in fact, the ACEN category has more reported problems than any other, which means the majority of problems reported don't lead to a vehicle that leaves its owner stranded.

Lexus hints at possible IS SportCross comeback [w/poll]

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

We're looking forward to seeing the 2014 Lexus IS in person next week at the Detroit Auto Show to see if its brazen design is any less polarizing in person, but Lexus (or at least its Facebook team) has dropped a not-too-subtle hint about the possible return of the SportCross body style - something in between a hatchback and station wagon. The current generation IS comes in sedan and convertible models, but this is an interesting teaser that might suggest an expanded IS lineup.
On its Facebook page, Lexus said:
Do you remember the '02 IS 300 Sport Cross with its style, utility and performance? Will we bring it back? Watch the 2014 IS premiere on Facebook in 6 days to find out!

Lexus considering V8 Supercars racing program

Sun, Nov 30 2014

Just a few years ago, Holden and Ford were the only manufacturers competing in Australia's V8 Supercars series. But those days were left long ago in a cloud of smoke on the track, and are only disappearing even further in the rearview mirror as the latest intel suggests Lexus could be ready to enter the series as well. Speaking with CarAdvice.com.au at the local launch of the RC coupe, Lexus Australia chief Sean Hanley revealed that his office approached the race organizers to hold "very high-level discussions" about the Japanese luxury brand entering the series. The development is reportedly spurred by the warm reception the RC has enjoyed so far Down Under, and by an expected impending shift in the rules of the V8 Supercars championship. The series has been rumored to be shifting away from strictly eight-cylinder sedans to include coupes and other engine types – a move that would open the door to more manufacturers to participate, including Lexus with the RC F. Currently the field is made up of Holden Commodores, Ford Falcons, Nissan Altimas, Volvo S60s and privately-entered Mercedes E63 AMGs. Nissan, Volvo and Mercedes only joined in the past couple of seasons following the last round of rules changes. The series received "international" status from the FIA in 2011and in the past few seasons has held races in locations as far flung as Abu Dhabi and Texas to its principally Australia-based calendar. Lexus, for its part, has competed in Grand-Am, Germany's Nurburgring-based VLN series and Japan's Super GT series, but unlike parent company Toyota, has yet to embark upon a top-level racing program in Formula One, the World Rally Championship or at Le Mans.
