Anybody else here dissapointed that the ISF isn't mentioned as one of the fun to drive Toyota cars? Sure they are focusing on the latest crop, but its funner than a GS come on.
A coworker has a 2013 GS. Slick car. Not as fun as the ISF (and he agrees with that), but definitely better than the outgoing GS model. Gives me hope that the GSF will be something I'd really want to drive.

I noticed that, too, especially as it came before the LFA as the first production F car.
What's more interesting, is how the IS F is mentioned when it comes to the gearbox, yet they continue to discuss this "gear hunting". I've yet to see it, especially as the car has an adaptive gearbox.
That said, it looks like Toyota/Lexus is doing some very good things on the performance/feel front, so I applaud those efforts.
Agree with CalitriSC, unless Lexus has a 600hp engine in the works there is no way they can compete with the German boys
Nope...no way they're gonna have 600hp. I don't even know if they'll get to 500hp. The only way Lexus is going to have a strong performance line that can even touch zee germans is if they hire all the lunatics and geeked out engineers that work for AMG.

not gonna happen...if they went turbo, they should have done it with their cheaper cars before they move into a flagship car with a "new engine" and new design. not saying that they don't know how turbo tech works...it just doesn't seem very Lexus.
Yes, I think the GSF is more certain to come than the next ISF for sure, and 460hp is what is being kicked around. Because we know that'll be down from the German competition, it'll be interesting to see where they price it.
