[evil00017]

Wow your cool!!

[kilo1]

when is this do to be out for sale in the stats? anyone

[TCInfinity]

Right away I think, but there might be a waiting list.

[Toyota4Life]

I WANT THIS CAR SOOO MUCH!!

[ScratchNSniffUK]

That sounds sexual.

[sk8r4lf138]

the is-f is a 7 speed paddle shift right? i heard that from some magazine and i was wondering if anyone could clear it up for me. thanks

[robbty18]

It's a world-first 8 speed tranny with paddle shifters.

[BroadwayFuture46]

Yeah it's an 8-Speed Auto-Manual Sport Transmission with Magnesium Paddle Shift or you can shift it right through the gear box just like on any other sport auto-manual transmission.

[ginorocco]

8 speed. Those tail lights look MEAN!

[rlazer5000]

I'm sure you probably found the answer to your question by now, but it's actually an 8-speed w/paddle shifters.

[XxnoitcelferxX]

sexy!

[bmwx5minijcw]

I want to see it battle a 2008 M3. That will be the day. I think the IS-F will throw the M3 in the dust the M3 will break down before it even gets to the finish line. i love bmws but hate the reliability.

[BroadwayFuture46]

I think i just wet myself.

Absolutely kidding.

But damn.

the IS-F is amazing.

[9720680]

cant wait for an aftermarket exhaust for this one! i have already seen one driving around my town in silver

[limachen]

anyone know the miles per gallon on this car?

[GABEXC]

starts at $59,000

[cmac2992]

i have heard prices from about 50-59 so it is less than m3 most likely

[carsaregood911]

i cant believe a lexus sounds like a muscle car, i luv it

[vitto]

Toyota make better cars than any American brand.

[cobrasegundo]

this car will have a price tage over 50 g's for sure.

[etalian2005]

Actually, it supposedly starts right at or around $50K. Well Equipped for $55-60K. Nieman Marcus edition = $68K with a $5K Skip Barber Racing Instruction Course.

[bluegrey123]

62k for mine..

[cobrasegundo]

is this car out already??? if not when does it come out?

[etalian2005]

February-March '08

[bdub215]

june 08

[bgb27]

its out in japan, but this was the car in the detroit auto show. comes out in february for us

[bmwx5minijcw]

it comes out early 2008 with a price tag of almost $62,000 but i think its well

worth it!

[Wellcraft34]

That car is faster then hell and would destroy anything I could ever own...but shit..Ive heard V-6 engines with a more throaty exhaust note. For a car with 416hp and a 5.0 V8 I would think it would sound a lot better.

[1032jerichord]

thats 1 of the best sounds ever

[gizthegizzygizmo]

lexus/ toyota v8's are soooo fun!

[NOTORIOUZxTURK]

Lexus and Toyotas are very nice long lasting cars

[sonyissony]

that's beautiful ... that's beautiful ... that's a Lexus.

[artcam1]

great sound , what a car

[jbuniverse99]

Oh man, I absolutely love cars, especially ones like this one, here in this video!!!!!

[carsaregood911]

its weird hearing this from a JAPANESE V8. sounds american

[lriosnie]

dumbass its a V8 engine no matter where its from...the sound is made regardless if the engine is indian or jamaican or brazilian or american..

by the way, yes its a nice car...could compete with the bmw's M series nicely

[H13TJD]

this already hands down beats the BMW M3 and is a beautiful car. I can't wait to test drive one. And the lovely people at "TOMS" have already designed some sexy Kits for it!!

Tom. I currently have a IS300

[goatrider]

Motor Trend just did a test between the IS-F, M3, and C63 AMG. Every tester said the M3 won by a large margin. The lack of manual transmission option turns a lot of people off. The IS-F is a nice car. I saw one on the road just the other day and was salivating. It is not, however, an M3.

[Hadron05]

So those same people would be turned off by lets see a Ferrari Scuderia, Ferrari Enzo, Veyron, Most Ferrari F430s, and many other sports cars that arent "true" manuals. When will people give up this "lack of manual" nonsense? All the cars I listed use FI paddle shifters. Formula one cars freakin use it!!!

[sct911]

LOL agreed, some people need to get a life, i dont c them complaining and f430's f1 paddle shifters

[kronosdb]

Would you salivate if you saw a BMW M3 on the road or just the IS-F ?

[esir20]

V8 baby

[DavidELD]

new bmw m3 say your prayers

[StevenSVT]

like the body kit the car comes with.

[24ozheineken]

Umm, 2 words for the haters.... 8 SPEED. (thats 1 more gear than an F1 car) :)

[HalfBreedMix]

Right on, what's more, Direct Shift baby! Just click away like you're playing Playstation.

[datzDope]

Word! ;) I read the specs on the Lexus site.. read and it said 8-speed.. and I was like WTF! haha Yeah man, fuck this shit dope ;) fuck those haters..

[Ice3power]

do F1's need 8 gears? does any car need 8 gears? since it comes with at 8 gears, what do you think that means? very short gears. and, its still a lexus.

[kyb2005]

nice deep sound... even sounds ferocious towards the higher end rpm's...

[bdub215]

dual vvt-i

[APAera]

this car is gonna be trick son, f bmw, theyre cars are shittily equipted and old bags drive em, no old bag is driven my is350 HKS muthafucka

[azzaQ]

Exhaust sounds great, but I wanna see 8400RPM racing engine, manual tranny, sport suspension, handling.... to be a real sports car, Honda might do it, but Toyota - I don't think so. That car, I already think is not even half Toyota work...

[overdocistri188]

i dunno my family owns a couple dealerships ive heard around 60 large for a decently equiped one. i want one so bad!!! best combination of performance and luxury if u ask me, oh and fit and finish too.

[pakistanigrandma]

this car can't compete with the new m3 coupe. what lexus doesn't understand is that it has to be willing to make sacrifices to make a sports coupe that will be able to compete with bmw.

this is coming from someone who once owned a 98 m3, and is currently driving a 03 is. lexus makes nice cars, but that's about it, they don't make 'wow' cars.

[kewlsupah]

sweet

[abdul456]

first lexus that sounds nice

[evilpimper]

lol you can hear that 5k computer limited rev :)

that shit has the hottest paint job ive seen so far.

[JediFederation]

Not bad at all, but for some reason the Acura TL Type S sounds more powerful. Can't wait to see the new generation TL vs. the IS.

[viperq]

I bet it will sound like a beast w/ after market pipes.

[superchargedturbo]

Sounds good. but not special. you can make that sound from any V8. (ever heard a bad sounding v8??)

The new M3 sounds spectacular.

hell.. my cayenne S sounds better and more distinctive than that

[BMW620]

Too sterile sound, but eh... euro4..that's the problem.

[drunkhomer]

oh man, wif the new M3 concept released..whos gonna buy this?

[jose7777777777777777]

i just have something to say: f@#$ u m3!!!

[realbiggun500]

why the HELL did they put a FREAKING AUTOMATIC in a "hard edged, m3 fighter" ? a dsg or a manual but a freaking automatic ?

[bgb27]

lmfao, thats not auto buddy, thats an 8 speed manual

[peikko4]

Lovely Sounds <3

[vinnroxx250]

I hav 2 hav this car wen it is released i plan on buying it... does anybody have a idea on the price i heard around 50,000

[mutuasd]

it sure has great sounds, but it was a bit too smooth..

[mohammedashe]

i don't see the difference between the 2008 IS and now. except for the body kit. r they only changing the engine for 2008.

[ClubLexus]

There are a few differences. i.e. Brembo brakes, 19" forged aluminum wheels made by BBS, and etc.

[stirl]

it's not supposed to be a whole new model...it's a high end sports version of the current IS350.

As the BMW M3 is to the 3 series.

[wildchildpr]

Take it to the Nurburgring and tell us the best lap time. I think it can make around 8:20.00.

[one6s4]

ugly car, but sound good

[niradg]

hey stickshift964 - this car only comes in automatic!

[onedorki3boi]

yea i'm pretty turned off by the fact that lexus take the mercedes route but i'm fine as long as the f1 paddle shifts perform like how f1 paddle shifts should

[stickshift964]

and so does my LX470 and my LS430. Your point?

[notmikelee]

very nice, how much?

[AznLexusMan]

Lexus is thinking aorund 50K

[nickaijoy]

that's a lot of money for a Toyota!!

[slobodan48]

its lexus read the title

[stickshift964]

1loudLX here - definately going to have to look into one of these puppies.

[tarifreduit]

Ive been watchng this car since it was realeased at the Detroit auto show..and now inally i can hear the exhaust:| XD

[mrWrxSti]

i just saw the auto show and it has 400hp i think idk if it's more i just know that it's basically the newest IS300

[Paradiddler45]

Can't wait for the IS-F vs. M3 battle. Should be a good one.

[KBstonehead]

when is that gonna be held and where

[webran61]

Amazing. Does anyone know the FINAL horsepower ratings for the IS-F? Is it 400, 420, or more?

[ClubLexus]

The ratings are not final yet, but more than 400 horsepower for sure.

[Buick61]

Not bad. Though, that sort of load-free revving can be very destructive to the engine.

[1VietnameseBoy]

That's beautiful.

[viperq]

Sounds awesome

[proto12qs]

This car is a real winner. Lexus luxury with the quality that is sunonomous with the Lexus name brand. What more can you want?

[SigmaH20]

a toyota :)

[eraserheads78]

a Toyota too. =)

[jussie007]

eraserheads78 and SigmaH20, why those stuipid comments?

[cawimmer430]

It's true.

[wheelsjamember]

Not stupid comments. A toyota with that engine, a 6spd manual, a two door body and the name SUPRA emblazoned on the rear trunk lid :D
