The IS-F is a POS. Seen pictures of the thing? The car just does not have any genuine race design to it. It looks like they took a regular IS (tamed chick car) and cosmetically added new bumpers, hood, and ugly stacked exhaust. As for the mechanics they took all of it from the LS sedan. It will be heavy and worthless for performance. The times they are posting on their sites are dead even with the 335i. Think they'll catch the new M with those times...ummm...no. How very sad. I give Lexus a "F" for this poor attempt at the performance race.
