Yes it is true! These words came from Mr. Hirokazu Koga, general manager of the Lexus Development Center and the men behind the Lexus IS F. According to Koga, the new vehicle which will be powered by a 500+ hp engine, was delayed due to the hard financial times and the fuel price but now it seems the car is on the straight line. Regarding the LF-A Supercar, things don’t look so good and Lexus might delay its debut in the world of supercars. The decision to build the GS F was taken due to the great sales of the IS F: foe example last month the IS F outsold the Mercedes-Benz C63 and Bmw M3 Sedan. Unfortunately these are the only details available but as soon as we will find out something we will let you know!

Wow, the IS-F is selling good, I wonder why they are so cheap on ebay though (saw some demo models listed at just under 50K)?

All sports oriented cars are going for very cheap right now.
Used Vipers, Porsches, Corvettes, and Ferrari's have taken a hard hit.

This will be very interesting.
