2008 Lexus IS-F Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Well ever since I did the video on the 2011 IS-F I have been on a search for the famous ultrasonic blue mica that had been featured in all the original press releases for the IS-F upon it's release. Plus I wanted a more smooth orchestrated video that taught viewers a little more about the history behind the car, my search is over and I hope everyone enjoys! In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2008 Lexus IS-F. This car is also part of the vast hendrick performance collection. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
Thanks a lot to Hendrick BMW of Charlotte, NC for allowing me to film this video! For more info on this vehicle as well as others visit www.hendrickbmw.com

    Ive had my 08 ISF for 5 years now bought it used in 2010 which I got at a steal $42k with 19k miles at the time. Its a very good car still solid performer and have received many compliments over the years. Its a great unique car to own because you hardly ever see another on the road. I can hit 150mph quickly before running out of room. Issues Ive had so far I had to change the front headlight on each side, my front fog lights finally have gotten quite faded so I just replaced them for brand new ones - a dramiatic difference. Also the touch screen on my Navi has stopped working. Radio and climate control work but you have to work with the switches instead not the touch screen. Want a fast car with style dont buy something new get a used ISF. Also I take the older style ISF over the new GSF thats coming out although its got 467hp Update 2021: I still have the ISF so 11 year ownership & a few years ago I changed the fluid in the rear diff, transmission, and Navi screen. I was going to stay with Lexus unfortunately they failed to impress and come up with anything better than what they already have with the V8 so I have switched to a BMW M6 which what I was hoping lexus would do a v8 twin turbo & I think it would sell tremendously. Best wishes to anyone staying with Lexus its still a great car 🙏

    With a r&r racing tune can easily get the quarter mile in low 11's. Supercharge it along with intake and exhaust upgrades and will easily be in low to mid 10's. As with most Lexus traction control can still get in the way even when it's turned off.
