Agreed. Only time I get to really drive it is during weekends.....so that's 2 out of 7 days.....

Nothing wrong with low miles, could be any number of reasons.

IF you have multiple cars, short commutes, it's easy to average only a few thousand per year if that. I had less than 8000 miles on my IS-F in over 3 years of driving.

In comparo my 04 NSX has less than 15k miles in 4 years of ownership and I got it with 8800 miles. Once you have multiple cars, the mileage on each car goes down dramatically. Even our family suv's and hybrids average about 5k per year.

I don't think what year it is is exactly relevant. Time of ownership and mileage should be accounted for as well, at least I think that's what the OP was going for(?)
2008 was first model year for the IS-F, so theoretically those should have more miles than say 2011 and 2012's that are out there, but with people like myself who have multiple cars and do not daily drive the F and for other reasons have some 2008F's with mileages that are really low. I just wanted to see what the low end range was. Old man winter has kept my car in the garage for what has seemed like an eternity.

LOL! If your IS F has less than 20k miles and it's a 2008...get off the forums and go drive.
