I've heard of 4 of 5 people so far that have traded in RS4s for IS-Fs. Interesting.

R8 does at least line up with the tips, though. ;-)

I don't think it's that the tips are fake, more that they look stupid stacked like that.

Default Congrats - got to say the car has a lot going for it.

and is probably a better daily driver than the RS and will be more reliable in the long run.

Default Agreed. The cosmetics are over the top. The IS 350 on the other hand.....

is drop-dead gorgeous. All they needed were some wider fender flares and minor front-end changes. In reality, however, the IS-F, M3, C63 and RS4 are all so close in overall execution. In my mind, the cars are all equals with each one having it's pros and cons.

Hi there,

I was contemplating the IS-F as well, but stopped short of driving it as I wanted awd and manual. So the RS4 was a clear winner for me. However, having owned a few Lexus vehicles in the past and today, I can't help saying that the build quality, engineering, interior of the Lexus vehicles is just three or five notches above what I see in my RS4. The RS is however just drives better and more involving. Again, don't know what the IS-F is like.
