Forget the G37, i think i'll wait for the Lexus IS-F.

is that thing really supposed to be around $50k?

hell, i paid $43k after tax for my 05 G....i think i'll just save a bit more and get the IS-F coupe whenever it comes out.

$50k for the G37??? LOL, uhhh I don't think so.......unless you are talking CDN dollars. Like Skater already said, this will likely start in the mid $30k range.

But yeah, forget the G37, I'm saving up for a Veyron.

You paid $43k out the door for an 05 G35? Sounds a little steep to me. You should be able to walk out the door with a G37 for under $40. Maybe not initially, but let the hype and markup die down, if any.

I'd be shocked if the IS-F was only $50K.

As a person who has bought 3 Lexus cars and currently own 2, I have to say I love the brand. I also would love to get an IS anything, 250, 350 or 500. I think it's one of the best looking cars on the road. It would be perfect if it were a coupe. Still super hot as a sedan. Problem is, the thing was not made for big guys. I'm 6-2, 268 lbs. I tried testing the car 5 times. I really wanted to get one. I kept banging my head on the door opening everytime I tried getting in. No shoulder room but leg room was okay. I felt trapped like a sardine in a can. So I got the G35. After 9 months of G ownership, I will say it ain't a Lexus but it's nice. Service dept is not Lexus but it's darn close. I'm happy with my G..........................but I love Lexus!

Lexus service department is very nice, but it feels like an AARP hang out spot sometimes. No Lexus for me, even though I recommend it to a lot of family friends. (people who don't have gasoline in their veins and lead in their foot)
