so after all it's not a "women's" car and blah blah blah.. even though it's e lexus i think it could be a competition to bmw'. particularly to 3 series. and ISF is pretty cool too even though m3 is rated better.
i had a chance to drive one IS (250 manual) and i must say the steering felt pretty tight and suspention handled good. it gave me a sporty feeling. i would still buy a bmw though

Actually if you watch Top Gear, and you really should, the ISF got stomped by the M3 in every aspect except 0-60. I have never been one to care about 0-60 or drag racing (seems like premature ejaculation to me, you blow your load in seconds?). What is way more important is handling and the ability to use all the power a car has - and in that test the M3 really shines far above the lexus. Besides, how many of us would really trade our E60's for a Lexus?
anyway i was just saying that they are not as bad and could be considered as competiotion otherwise they wouldn't even compare ISF to M3.
