  1. I thought about that but I'm obsessed with clean, glossy paint work as most of you probably are lol. I'm just worried I might buy the previous shape F Sport and then in 6 months it's worth next to nothing because of the new shape..... Or has that big fall in price already happened so they'll sit around the mid 40's for a while?
  2. Budgeting for around 45k maybe more if the right one pops up. I've been looking at that 2012 one in the link. Looks like a good buy. I'm thinking maybe go with a blue one purely because I see white ones all the time lol
  3. No updates as yet. Still looking, missed out on Vakus old car. Drove a flame blue one on the weekend but the paintwork was in ordinary condition. The search continues!
  4. lol I went to look at it yesterday. Didn't say who I was. A sales guy came out, we were chatting and I asked him to start it up. Instantly you could hear metal on metal, something knocking about like crazy. I asked what it was, "it probably just needs a tune up, it'll stop when it warms up" with that he switched it off. I told him to restart it so I can see if it stops once warmed up. He did, I then told him that I've been told the engine is cactus and that a replacement will be fitted this week as per my conversation with the pre owned manager. He then "oh right yeah this is the one getting a new engine, I forgot about that" (yeah right) lol we took it for a drive and it got louder. I got back and they asked for a deposit, I told them no I'll be right. Oh but what if it sells they asked. I told them sleep wouldn't be lost if it did lol
  5. Funny you mention that. I've actually found Vaku's old car at a dealer in Melbourne. Still trying to negotiate with the dealer. Lexus of Chatswood have one coming in. Although they did call me the other day telling me that the car has arrived but is waiting for a brand new motor to be put in. No idea what's happened to that car. 2012 model with 38k on the clock. Sounds a bit sketchy! Here's the ad for that one.. http://carsales.mobi/cars/details/2012-lexus-is350-f-sport-gse21r/AGC-AD-15224082
  6. Thanks for the reply guys, Been looking online at cars, got dealers interstate on the hunt for exactly what I'm after, hopefully something pops up soon. Fingers crossed ey
  7. Hey guys! Just signed up, I'm about to buy my very first Lexus. I've been looking at getting an IS for quiet some time now and have recently started looking at a few 350's (would love a flame blue one but I can't find one! Second preference will be white) I'm leaning towards a 2011 model F Sport. I looked at a few Sport Luxury models but I'm sold on the F Sport interior. Can anyone please tell me the main differences between the two models? Are there any problems or common flaws I should check or look out for when looking at examples for sale? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
