blackadder Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Whats starting to annoy me is that sometimes when you hit the gas, not hard mind you, but just gently the engine revs then it kicks in and you lurch forward, thats the best way to describe it. Instead of a smooth take off. Anyone else experience that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaku Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 congrats on the pickup, I am in the exact same position atm.. always wanted an IS and i am literally on carsales daily waiting for 'the right' one to come up, very tempted by the f sport as I just think all it needs is a few things (exhaust etc) and your pretty much done - has everything else I want. but now that the new model is announced, should I hold out for a price drop or let temptation get in the way? the cheapest one ATM is $51k for a black f sport with 30k's. alternatively could just get a base 350 and currently two are in the low 40's and 'spec it up' myself - not a huge fan of that idea but the savings may justify it. currently have a black MY13 euro luxury and the idea of getting another black... scares me, lol.
