Hey everyone! Up for sale or trade for a 6spd 335i is my 2008 Lexus IS-F in excellent condition. I am the third owner of this vehicle, and I have owned this car for around four months. Since the purchase, I have put around 4,000 miles on the car. As the CarFax records indicate, regular maintenance has been performed at or before the recommended time for the car's entire life at various Lexus dealerships. This IS-F has a clean title and no accidents. I just hit 100,000 miles in the IS-F, but since it is a Toyota, these cars will last who knows how long. Research on the internet and personal testimonies indicate just how strong these cars are and how long they last.

With a 420hp 5.0L V8 from the factory and a 4.2 second 0-60, this car is insanely quick, and I always get compliments everywhere I go. My reason for selling is mainly because I have been looking at 335i's for a while. I have always loved driving and working on turbo cars, but I traded my old MKIV Supra turbo for this car just to experience the N/A life for a little while. That said, I am ready to return to the world of forced induction.

Here is a list of the minimal modifications on my IS-F:
-Full window tint
-Custom full dual catback
-Slight tint on rear tail lights
-Wiring set up for a sub (sub not installed since the factory system is substantial on its own)

Other Specs/Features:
-Mark Levinson premium sound system
-19" BBS wheels (some curb rash on front driver-side wheel)
-Heated seats
-Sunroof
-Navigation
-Full black leather interior

That said, I am mainly looking at trading this car for a 6 speed 335i. Options I am looking for include the following:
-6 Speed Transmission
-Less than 80k miles
-Less than $20k book value (but I would need some cash).

This IS-F with this mileage books for a little over $25,300, but with its clean record and meticulous maintenance, it is worth over that (according to the CarFax report). Additionally, I had it appraised at $25k trade in value at a local Lexus dealer a few weeks ago. However, if anyone is willing to trade me a 6spd 335i, I am willing to sell my IS-F at a trade value of $24k. If your 335i is worth less than $24k, which is preferred, I would ask for some cash on top. My ideal trade is for a 2007 or 2008 6 speed 335i worth around $16,000-$18,000, with around $6,000-$8,000 cash on top.

One question I keep getting asked is why I bought the IS-F in the first place when I have been looking for a 335i. Two answers to that question. One, I enjoy switching cars a lot. The longest time I have owned a single car has been a little over a year. And two, before my IS-F, I had a 550whp MKIV Supra, and I received an offer that I could not pass up (this IS-F plus a good sum of cash). I absolutely love the refined luxury and reliability of the IS-F, but I am looking for something as fast and modifiable as my Supra. I feel that a 335i is a perfect compromise between those two cars.

Final words; I am willing to travel, but I prefer to meet halfway if you wish to trade. Feel free to ask me ANY questions and/or shoot me an offer. Worst I can do is say no.

Thanks for looking!!

Turned out the 335i was NOT as advertised. Car was throwing a CEL with misfires on every cylinder and was in very rough condition. That said, my IS-F is still up for sale.
