IS-F Lexus - the vitals on the BMW M3 / Audi RS4 challenger are decent -- the 5.0-liter V8will produce more than 400 hp (still no exact number yet) and 350 lb-ft or torque. But the major bit is the eight-speed tranny lifted from the LS460, with paddle shifters. Official zero-to-60 time is listed as under 4.9 seconds, and brakes are 14.2-inch six pots in the front and 13.6 two pots in the rear (though no word on the rumored Brembo-sourced action.)

 

very big engine bay!

 

I dont know what it is but I dont really like it.

 

As much as I love Lexus I won't get excited until I see a coupe.

 

I love it, but will all the electronic gizmos have "off" switches in the F model??? That's the sticking point...

 

really? thats always been everyones complaint with lexus. glad to see they listened. personally i dont like it. i think the ducts ruin the gorgeous lines that have always been lexus.
