These guys do a pretty good job of that by breaking down what they like about each car in thoroughly unscientific fashion. I guess they could’ve gone to the dyno or skid pad, like Road and Track do, but that doesn’t give you a feel for what these cars might be like to live with. Trust me, I love watching Chris Harris drift cars to within an inch of their life as much as the next guy, but I can’t drive like that. Most people can’t drive like that. I suspect the average M5/IS-F buyer are a little bit closer to these two than they are Tiff Needell.
Regarding which one is the better car… I think we all know the answer to that one. Still, if you’ve never checked out the IS-F, this video might expand your mind a bit. It’s not a bad car at all.
It’s just not better than the BMW.
