Why didn't Lexus make a manual version of the F?

If you love it so much, then why don't you marry it
Nobody is saying that the 8 speed in the IS-F is not nice. However, if you can not accept that someone else has a different opinion than yourself, then you sir are infantile. There are alot of people who wish that Lexus had put a decent manual in the IS-F instead of the IS250.
Does the fact that people dissagree with you about whether the IS-F should have a manual option threaten your self esteem or sexuality? Why the hostility, open up, embrace diversity

last time I checked this is a lexus IS-F forum where Lexus owners congregate to talk shop and cars. We get it, you don't like the car. Trying to convince IS-F owners otherwise is an act of futility. Please go out and buy a BMW, you two will be so happy together!

is pointing out flaws or questioning certain features of a car really the same thing as out-and-out hatred? The IS-F is a very nice car, but it's not perfect. in fact, it's closer than most to being there. if you think the IS-F is the ne plus ultra of the automobile universe, then you're either deluded or stupid. more likely both.

Well, reading this thread it was a pretty decent observation based on post content, etc. Good enough that I decided to check on a few things...

"If you love it so much, then why don't you marry it". That's funny are you like 12 or something? I have not heard that phrase for about 40 years.
But anyway, I love this car the with the JoeZ exhaust the 8 speed auto, it sounds and feels great. I took a run last week up a twisty highway here in SC called Ortega Hwy. I had more fun shifting with the paddles than I ever had with my manual vettes, or stangs. It was a dream to run through those 45 miles with this car and trans. I did most of the run in sport mode and man. but I also found that if you leave it in sport mode and D the paddle shifts will hold the gear until you want to shift or the RPMs hit the shift point. Lexus really did their homework on this car and trans.
