Where are good places to look for a used IS-F?

The red is gorgeous, but I just can't have another red car... depends on whatever fits your likes...
Also, to the OP... personally, I would never finance for more than 48 months, because then you'll be owing more than the car is worth, not to mention the interest rate is higher in some instances... and that means you'll be paying more to finance over 84, let's say, instead of 48 or 36 months. And in regards to mileage, anything over 30k miles is just way too much, but these days it's hard to be picky when choosing an F...

Yeah I would like to stay around 30k miles or less. Not sure how long I want to finance for, but I want to keep my payment around the $500 range. I'm looking to spend around 42k hopefully. I am willing to put down around 10-12k. Really want either the Starfire Pearl or Smoky Granite Mica...

I would probably consider silver too and no I was not including taxes in my purchase price. I guess I could do 60 months and have a little higher payment. I just don't want to borrow more than 30k.

Just a tip, when I sold my 350Z to carmax and they pulled my carfax, it all looked clean and said there was nothing major. I was excited because after a drunk driver hit me from behind, there was frame damage to my car. After they fully inspected my car, the inspector found the frame damage and I was told this would significantly lower how much I get for my car BECAUSE carmax can only resell it to a dealer, not another customer. (Because it doesn't fall into the carmax guarantee) If I would've bought this from the dealer and looked at the carfax, I would never know there's been frame damage. I recommend Buying a car from carmax for this reason. Even if it's a few thousand more.

Does anyone live in PA? I found one there and wanted to see if anyone could possibly check it out. Here is the link...http://baierlacura.com/Pittsburgh-We...e-Car/6099679/

I wouldn't rush into anything...patience is key but I know how it is when you really want something....the 45+ prices being asked for 20K mileage '08's is nuts....you guys can do better. I just sold mine last week w/ 25K miles for $41.5 and was asking $42.5....it had a lil curb rash on one rim and associated stone chips up front (no clear bra)...I wanted it gone and just so happened a local guy wanted smoky granite...just to give you some perspective on a real sale.

I might have nabbed one of the three. I just got mine last week. On Monday, there were three on cars.com- red, silver and blue. On Friday, they were all sold.
I thought the dealer was kidding when he said they move quickly. Apparently, not....

I'm also in the market for one, but preferably in the Northeast. I would say be patient, you'll find one this summer. I never thought I'd find any near me, but there were 3 in MA and 2 here in NY that I inquired about, but got sold before I could make a trip out to check out the cars. I'd like anything except Matador Red.. since my current car is red.
The members on this forum have said that 3-year leases for F's are ending soon, so some will start hitting the market this summer.
The only advice I can give is, be open to travel, and act quickly when you find a good deal because these cars are selling like hot cakes. And I will do the same!

I picked up my USB F on Saturday... I got $2k off the asking price and could have bargained more, but considering the dealer agreed to service it (brand new brakes, oil chg, filters, alignment, battery) before I picked it up, I couldn't turn it down. Not to mention he was getting offers from 4-5 people the SAME DAY I picked it up.
Gotta act quickly!!
