I have both, so please don't start flaming for no damn reason


All I have to say is that I enjoy taking my cars to the dealer to fúck them into fixing things so that corporate loses money and I get a free rental...


My Lexus hasn't gone in for anything in over 2 years...

My Z... The first week I bought it, the second week... A month after, a few months after... And I have a laundry list of things it needs to go in for now


EDIT: real problems too, tranny clunking, gas gauge doesn't show full AGAIN, cruise control doesn't work, seat belt winder is fúcked... (Door and roof panels squeak too)

I broke my assbone and the Z is more comfy, lol

And the Z seats 2


And the ISF feels as it has more grip and that's the reason it brings me more joy...
You're in a 4 door quiet car and you're amazed it can do what it does, and it does it so well!

Oh, and the sound of a V8, no meisterhitler or Amuse exhaust can replicate that sound

I have a z and my buddy has an ISF. He has pretty deep pockets (at least more than me)
I bought my Z used and have quite a few bolt ons. The ISF is a V8 and does have about 80 more horse power and you can feel it. Power to weight ratio and/ cost and 0-60 was not that much different. We track our cars about 5-6 times a year and I can keep up with him unless it is a real long straight away. As long as I can keep the engine spooled up , I can hold my own.

As far as performance. You can only change the suspension /wheels /exhaust. My buddy contacted SAAD racing and they as well as other companies have said that without spending thousands of dollars cracking the built in computer, there really isnt much more to do to the car.

The Z however, the sky is the limit as long as you have the money.

I'm no expert, just sharing what I have been told and learned.

Bottom line, If you like it and have the money , get it. Just don't expect to modify a whole bunch of things.

They are really sick looking cars.
