Nice upgtade! Considering something similar one day.
So the early IS-F's were knocked for a rough ride. Can you comment on that? I like your style rims the best, so the 2008/9's are what I'd be after.

Sorry I lagged on my comment.. I have driven the 2013 ISF and obviously the one I own.. I'll say that the 2008 is definitely rough but I have gotten used to it.. so much so I now dodge road imperfections if possible lol... so yeah, it's a stiff suspension. However, I drive this car daily and I don't find it at all intolerable. The 2013 didn't feel that much different around town but I can't comment on track experience.. both cars are equally awesome to me.

Also... I COMPLETELY agree about the rims.. I love this style. I actually bought them for my IS350 only to later find out they wouldn't fit and took a loss selling them. Left a sour taste in my mouth that only the ISF could cure.

Probably the best thing about the ISF is that nobody really knows what the heck it is.. or that it might be a 'problem.' Not a whole lot of heads turn while cruising so you're sort of left alone by both citizens and police.. but hammer it and they all know.

I highly recommend the change, despite how nice the 350 is. :cheers:
