Hey guys!
My name is Miguel, I just purchased a used 2008 Dark Silver IS-F.
I got this car at a steal for 27,500. It has some miles, and needs some TLC. The engine is sound, and the car itself is in good shape. Looks like the previous owner did some traveling, and didnt really take care of the outside of the car as he should have. I absolutely love this car, and it will be completly restored to its former glory. Im new to the Lexus community, but I have built several show winning rides, and Im looking forward to building this one.
Here is a pic of the ISF as I was taking delivery.
I will update this post later with some pictures of my former rides.
I cant wait to get going on this. And thanks in advance for the welcome!

Thanks man! I should have kept my Volk GTS Phantoms, but oh well.
99,460. I have all the service records, and I am friends with the Lexus tech that has done every service.
Im going to change the front and rear hubs/bearings, Brake pads, rotors, brake lines, and tires in the next week or two. With these many miles, I want to replace anything that could have allot of wear and tear. The tranny was completely serviced and a new computer was installed under a recall.
Its going to get stripped and re-painted next week, and Ive already got a JoeZ intake with a drop in filter on their way.

Welcome and nice line-up you have owned/worked on. You definitely got a great deal regardless of mileage. I had Volk GTSs in hyper silver from my G35 I was hoping to install on the ISF as well but if your offsets were too aggressive/wide (like mine) they wouldn't have worked anyway. Unfortunate I know because that is my favorite rim design and it would looked unbelievable.
