Id say go for it if you're more into the performance. If youre just in for a daily driver keep the 2012 fsport

If you are all about performance, then get the F. The 350's typically have a few more bells and whistles if you are more into that sort of thing.

If it was me... F all the way!

I own both kinds of cars, between the 2 I love the get up and go with my wifes IS350 F sport but damn the power of the ISF compared... theres a hugh difference...

So if you are looking for power and dont mind losing all the cool stuff your 2011 has to offer, headlights, BT capability, iPod control and whatever else you got on there... I say go for the power of the IS-F and unleash the beast! If you were planning on modding your car and dumping money into your IS350, might as well dump the money into a faster car and get the ISF... just my $0.02 GL with your choice bro!

Add a poll up top and see what others have to say bout your trade and include more info, milieage, and color, and also condition of each...

If you really like the power and don't mind losing any interior and exterior features the 2011 has, then perhaps go for the ISF. Especially since the ISF is more rare on the street than the IS350! I heard others say the feel from going from the IS350 to the ISF isn't as big as the jump from the IS250 to the ISF though.

I wouldn't do it. I considered an F before i got this 350. Wasn't worth it to me.

ISF

Just make sure the couple of features you will loose aren't on your "must have" list!
