| Lexus launches a car to give M3 & RS4 a run for there money. "If Godzilla wore a business suit, this is very likely the car he’d drive to work. The first in a series of specialised “F” cars for Lexus, it’s Japan's answer to Germany's high-performance V8 mid-sizers such as BMW's M3 and Audi’s RS4." Pics and more info in the link below.

| hahhahah yea i saw the F at the seattle international car show yesterday..its pretty nice but come on..can u really compare a lexus/toyota to a bimmer? |

| aha someone made this comment! 'About time it got here and for the japs to have a decent crack at the upper performance market! This is one sleek piece of gear. And to Tony Neman, the IS F should not be under-estimated (dont forget Toyotas F1 technology to back it).' Posted by: Nathan 6:50pm October 09 2007 Toyota has put 0% of their f1 tech in it... since when did an f1 have a 5L engine and an auto gearbox? hmm toyotas arent that bad in the reliability stakes i must admit though (plus my dad has an mr2 gt and for the moment it beats my car so i cant say they are all slow )

| it leaves them to come out with the new lexus isf trd-s. They should put a supercharger on it and call it a day or maybe a v10 from one of the formula cars. Or they could just stroke it and give it a 6 speed manual tranny.Hopefully they do develop a full sport version of this car. |
