At the RRRacing IS-F track event (9/12, New Jersey Motorsports Park), I'm pretty sure there were more Porsche GT3s than IS-Fs

I've seen 1 other F on the road.

Thought I saw one today, but alas it was just an ISx50 with an eBay rear bumper

Sucks not seeing someone with the same car but on the same hand it's really nice to be rare. I get questioned all the time, and that v8 rumble makes people do a double take.

I've received "which motor did you throw in there?" so many times.
Always respond with Toyota five liter

^^^ wrong forum... We are referring to the ISF, not the IS350 Fsport.

There about 4-5 here in Savannah, I see one of those guys maybe once every two months. And I am almost never in my F when I do. Did have to take it to the tire shop the other day and one of the guys there were like, hey nice F-Sport.
I looked at him and said no....F. With a confused look on his face he was like, oh the fast one.

Very true there are way more RC-F's in lots then there were ever IS-F's. One of my local dealers alone has 22.

How rare is to have another ISF living 7 houses down from you? When I first moved in I taught he was fallowing all the way home until he pulled into his driveway..

I have heard the same thing from others around the country. This is not a good sign for the F models. RC Fs should be in tight supply, not sitting on lots. The IS F suffered similarly as did the MkIV Supra, but usually the first model year sells briskly.
