2008 Lexus IS-F....we got one

So I work at Northtown Lexus, and have been anxiously been awaiting the arrival of the new Lexus IS-F to hit the stores in March of 2008. We recieved our first one, a couple weeks ago, in Silver. However, the guy who bought it had a change of heart, and decided he wanted a white one instead. So, we dealer-traded the Silver IS-F, for a white IS-F, from Burdick Lexus, in Cicero. Here are some pics. I got to drive it last night, before pulling it into my Detail Bay. It’s definitely a nice car. Here’s a couple pics from last night, after it was all detailed up and ready for the customer to take delivery on Monday. I took these with my phone, so I did the best I could, with what I have.

the 4 exhaust tips looks bad close up b/c you can see the single pipe behind it

Lexus of Las Vegas called me and offered me 1st dibs at their 1st one because my salesman remembered me talking about it when I bought my wifes RX. I told him thanks but the price tag was a bit hefty for me for that car. tear

8 speed?

Yes, 8 speed automatic. 416hp/375lb ft i believe. Check out these videos of it on YouTube…

The one we have, sticker price is $61,635 i believe. Give or take a couple hundred.

I saw a blue one on the street. They look decent. Im still not feeling the exhaust tip setup.

14

that quad exhaust is hideous. The rest isn’t too bad. Seems a lil over-done IMHO.

15

17
