At least they are trying to be different.

Wheels said it is no M3 material, but sort of a class of itself, where you can go fast in a, hmm......., Lexus way..... not sure what that means though.

More of an executive express than an all out sports car by the sound of it. Swift and silent....

i wouldnt really call it over priced, considering the competition and what it does.

I think it looks awesome, except for the interior.

this would be a fantastically built car - with performance to boot.... already faster than the current m3 shows what the japs can do by geting rid of the 206kw restriction they once had......

wait till the japs get hold of this a put their aftermarket bolt ons........

never really been a fan of the lexus. As said earlier, overpriced toyota's (Luxury EXport US)... Jap car built with yankers in mind. Give me the audi anyday, a little more credible.

BTW, the stacked exhausts are a bit of a joke!
