Friday afternoon and the sun is out, he will be on the Guinness now...........

This is when I found it, very relieved as I had only bought it the day before and the guy said the mount was guaranteed to stay on the car up to 150mph, which is just enough................. https://youtu.be/AupQfIGLoBg

V8 Mustangs, Pah they will need more than that..............they need to get serious

Nice quality, sounds like you have the same problem with the mic as me, this is my GoPro https://youtu.be/HVbbTO9PehU Must admit though the car does sound good as it disappears into the distance!!!!!!!!!!!

The warm fuzzy feeling is the Guinness @Big Rat

Wow, good memory there Dav, don't let everyone know what I get up to at weekend, no ones is paying attention are they..........

Oi Oi, I am watching you lot, I am saving all my witty replies for Wales....................

Cant see the video Mark, I have been trying various different mics on my GoPro, without success, we must have a catch up on this.

Yes I know what you are saying, if I swap the car for a GS-F when the warranty runs out I will have a reasonable amount of equity in mine, especially with it being the faster and more desirable blue model......................if you get what I mean

Hmmm at that price it is worth considering.

I must admit mine is out of warranty, I don't have any sleepless night, don't get me wrong I can see the benefits, look at @Flytvr issue with the steering rack, if he had to shell out his own money on that it may have soured the ownership experience somewhat, this is my 4th Lexus and I have ran all of them outside the warranty without a single failure, maybe I am tempting fate, I don't know, how much is a warranty on the IS-F anyway...............????

A good point made on the reliability of the vehicles giving the dealer the chance to make money on servicing only, mine is on a service plan for another 12 months, after that I will be looking for a good independent I can trust, problem is there doesn't appear to be any around the area I live.

Another blue one steps into the arena, I can feel a Kemble meet coming on.................

Someone that buys an IS-F for 37k clearly wants an IS-F and not a 2 door coupe even though it is a newer car, an RC-F is a completely different car to The IS-F and as such a decision to purchase one over the other irrespective of price cannot be classed illogical because you don't agree and would have chosen to spend your money on a different car

.........."it has a double turbo", who gave her that information.................

Great stuff, you will love it, exhaust has clearly been changed, at the very least the back boxes, should sound better, I know mine does. Yes a few members on here have an issue with colours, the less said about that the better

Parts only, not for sale, ha ha no surprise there. How can they say drive shafts and hubs are good, after the rear axle has taken such a big impact I would say clearly not. Yes another one off the road, best colour combination as well shame, but wont do the residuals any harm.

I think you are missing a major point here, you say "when it comes to a practical buying decision the price will be a major thing"", this just simply does not apply with some people, they buy with their heart, they spend what they can afford but a practical buying decision it is not.

RC-F has pretty much turned out to be a sales flop, it seems to have really missed its target audience, the RC300h and 200t maybe a different story. My thoughts on the IS-F are a little different.

Is it supposed to be representative of anything................ Its a track day with a GT3, a 430 and an Is-f, I don't know anyone that goes to a track day with high end equipment to follow someone around, so the GT3 gets dropped after a lap and the Lexus chases the 430 for a couple of laps, was the guy in the 430 really trying??????? we don't know, was the guy in the isf trying?????? it would certainly appear so, in the end the Lexus passes the Ferrari, does it represent anything? Maybe it represents a light 510bhp car cant hold off a 420bhp car giving away 400kg with a better driver.................................... Who knows, it was posted as an entertaining piece of video.

Don't get me bloody started on microphones, I have followed you tube tutorials, bought external microphones with fluffy bits, nothing seems to work, I know I am doing something wrong, but what.................

Been out this morning trying the GoPro in different positions, so hopefully I can catch all the action as it happens.
