Its a sexy sedan. I checked out a white one in Sauga. I think I would still go with the M3.

No chance in hell, I have the issue of road and track in the can, I read it everyday. M3 came out on top in every category. Good try Lexus, try again.

it's a really nice car but i would rather take an m3 over it, but if i had to choose a car in that $$$ range I'd pick the new Mercedes C63....451hp ftmfw.

That car is hot, Its in the same class as the M3 and $30 grand cheaper.

I would go with the IS F, Lexus quality is amazing.

I'll take the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG, IS-F looks better then the new M3.

What he said... BMW are the greatest driving pleasure. Lexus' are lame, old man cars.

IS-f does look nice(m3 is nicer IMO but im biased lol), i hate the exhaust i find they look so stupid, and sure it's fast... but whocares how fast you can go on a straightaway anyways. and most ppl that think a lexus will drive better than a bimmer HAS NOT driven a bimmer the way it should have been driven

Just for the records, E90 M3 did 71.8 MPH on the slalom compared to the c63's 68.6 mph ...

"For all this, the 2008 BMW M3 Sedan's breadth of competence is insurmountable in this comparison. The BMW just does so many things so damned well, and this spectrum of talent really defines what the M3 is all about. The M3 can be many things to many different drivers without unduly compromising its ability to perform for any one of them. This is the mark of a very special car, and it makes the BMW M3 sedan the winner in this comparison."

I'll take the practicality of four door over 2, comfort of a lexus and the beast it's supposed to be when you hit the throttle, i think it's everything in one.

Don't forget this is Lexus' very first attempt at making a car like this, and they very nearly bettered the bimmer and the Merc.

BMW has had what? 30 years making M cars to hone their craft.
