Lexus IS-F 2011+ Owners Review

[Npjdiff]

I’ve been digging into the Lexus IS F recently and trying to get a clearer picture of what the “ideal” example looks like from an owner’s point of view. There’s a lot of variation in colours, interiors and mileage out there, and I’m interested in how much those differences actually matter in the real world.

The spec that appeals to me personally is something like:

• Sub‑70k miles
• Strong history and enthusiast ownership
• Ultrasonic Blue (always seems to be the one people rave about)
• White leather interior
• Preferably a well‑kept, largely original car rather than something heavily modified


I’m not posting this as a wanted ad — just keen to hear from anyone who owns or has owned something along those lines.

If you’ve got an IS F in that sort of spec:

• How does it feel to live with
• Does the colour/interior combo make it feel more special
• Any quirks, highlights or surprises that only show up with ownership
• And would you choose the same spec again if you were buying another


Always appreciate hearing real‑world experiences from people who’ve spent proper time with them. PH usually has the most honest takes.
