New Daily Driver (09 ISF Starfire Pearl)

Just wanted to share a few pics of the new daily...having had an 08 Silver ISF I knew exactly what I was getting into when I bought another one. This time I chose the "Starfire Pearl" color, which in my opinion, is STUNNING in person. Enjoy the pics...

Great color choice! I see you got rid of the GTR and went the supra route again. Great choice in vehicles!

hmm I dont know about that color bro??? It looks way to much like mine :-) I love how this color looks at nite in the right light.

Hey I missed why you got rid of the GTR. I was looking forward to you tuning it up and followed your progress of it. I had seen you selling stuff but didnt put 2 and 2 together. PM me if you like.

Welcome back, any plans with the ISF?

Best color and great car. I drove the ISF on the track aling with the M3, and S5. The lexus SHOCKED me on how weel it drove and the handling was way better than I ever imagined. It was 10X the car the S5 was IMO. I thought it would be the other way around but it was not. Great exhaust note as well. My only issue is that I can not ever own an automatic car. F1/DCT maybe but not a regular automatic. To be honest though the 8 speed auto in the ISF was as good as any auto I have ever driven. Once again that is the best color for that car espicially with the dark wheels. Best of luck with it.

Very nice looking car and I love the color too. Are there any significant differences between the 2008 and 2009 aside from the color?

I sold the silver ISF and bought a GTR to daily drive...I sold the GTR and bought another ISF to daily drive.

Dan, the only real difference 08 to 09 is a slightly nicer interior with black accents...otherwise, they are basically the same.
