    I noticed that allot of people haven't talked about Lexus or owning one. I wanted to know what you guys think about it as I keep seeing them come up in discussions with Mercedes and BMW.

    How does the Lexus stack up against a Mercedes or BMW?

    What 'bout Audi?

    For me it would be Lexus IS->Audi A4->Bmw 3->MB C
    maybe flip Audi and BMW

    A very typical and simple way to solve this: drive all three, but I am not here to provide a stupid answer.

    Recently, I had the opportunity to have an IS-F for several days and I can certainly say I walked away VERY impressed. It is in another universe when compared to the IS350, which IMHO, is really not a fantastic auto. Drive both and I am sure you will understand.

    I would say more, but I have to keep quiet for a little bit.

    I decided to get the fat and sloppy model to replace my Jag. I went with the ES350 because I needed a cruiser to take trips with. I must say this having been my 1st Japanese car it is great. I bought it for the soft couch type ride. If you want the performance then I would go with the IS-F. You will be surprised on how well it performs. I am also impressed with the details and creature features. I only have 5000 miles on it and it is soft smooth and quit. Getting 32mpg on highway and 28mpg overall avg. So go take them for a ride and compair to the others. I'm happy with my selection.
