Yea if I was looking for that specific car I would get the M3 or RS4. Im not a fan of smaller cars anymore but for a toy I could live with it. Im driving a coupe right now and I hate it
I know someone selling a 2010 ISF for 53k with only 9k on the odometer. I just wasn't wowed with it at the ISF track event in Chicago. Maybe the GSF will prove me wrong and grab my attn.

yea they have 3k cash back on the ISF and some other special incentive. What makes it worse is these cars are only selling for 44k at the shoots. I can only imagine how much the numbers will tank when winter officially hits.
Id buy one for the right $$ but it wouldnt be my first pic.

I drive my GS only on the weekends as well or every once in a while I'll take it to work when I don't feel like driving my Subaru. I like the car, it's fun to drive but I miss being higher up in an SUV. I was in a RR, FX, and an Escalade before the GS and I like the spaciousness of the SUV and just being higher up on the road. So, I prob wouldn't get a GS again but who knows, if the 4GS looks good and depending on what other options I may have when my lease is up.

I wouldn't get an ISF as my only car for many reasons, but so long as I have my "slow" GS if a second car ever came into my realm of possibility (it would have to be a three season car here.......) I'd look at the ISF in a second if we weren't so totally RIPPED OFF on cars here up north.

I do not think I would purchase another GS, bi-weekly visit to the service department since I got it back in 2006.
Specially for the last two months, I only get to drive my GS for less than a week; rest of time was in the service department...
If I want to visit the service department on the weekly basis, I would of gotten a BMW or MB instead...

I have driven my GS350 every day for the last 3.2 years. I love this car. However, the BS with the brakes and rattles has got me. Not sure what the next car will be but I will consider options other than Lexus.

Unless they come out with a GSF I am going to consider other brands. The rattles and cheapness of the seats and other parts is very dissapointing for a $50K + car. I am still looking for a good white CLS63. I have not researched the MB factory warranty very much but am afraid it does not compare to Lexus and this is what keeps me from pulling the trigger. Anyone know if MB has a 6year/100,000 mile warranty like Lexus. Warranty on a MB is a must.
