2008 is-f price with 6500 miles
#17
Was searching for 2010 and 2011s when I started looking. It took me 4 months to find the mileage/color combo/condition I wanted within a 150 mile radius. The car makes me smile every time I drive it so it was worth it.

I was looking at the same one, assuming it is located in Seattle, and found that for a little more money I was able to secure a 2011 with 9k on the odometer for 43k.
I assure you the difference between the 08 to the 11 is substantial, take a look around the board here and you will find many people are encouraging the 11 over any previous model.
The 6k on the odo is tempting, I get it, but mileage on these cars isnt an issue...bulletproof.

I ended up buying the car. I ended up paying 36700 for the car. I hope i didn't overpay. Some of you guys got an awesome deal on your cars. I've been looking for a while and decided that this car had very low miles on it. I didn't realize the substantial differences in the years. I only thought the susp and lsd were the only major updates. Other than that I wanted a car with low miles. I ended up shipping the car and am expecting it tomorrow. I'm now finally officially an f owner! Thanks guys for your input.

I just bought an 08 with 30k miles on it. After tax and tags I was @ around $36,000. It is true the 08 ride is a little "stiff and bumpy" but honestly I don't mind it at all, You can feel the road better
The NAV works fine, the only difference I could tell from 08 and 2011 is Bluetooth audio doesn't exist in the 2008 (but you can make BT calls)
Sure you could sweat the little electronic upgrades, but that's not what this car is about to me.
Plus I always hear the 08's have the best track times.
Good luck!

Hey Nick, that one was from seattle. I knew the owner there and he ended up trading in for the rcf and I got this form the lexus dealer. I did have to get it shipped down to me which cost me 2k for an enclosed trailer. I was going to buy this from him last year and glad I didn't since he put on 100 miles since I drove it last may, I saved 10k just being patient and waiting.

Well done! I couldn't be happier with mine, sounds like you feel the same way!
