A bit off topic, but FYI the IS-F has a 5.0L V-8 that pushes over 400HP (no set number yet) and over 350lb-ft of torque, has a 0-60 time that is said to be below 4.9 seconds.

Its scheduled to be released in Jan 08 with a est. base price of $53K

Lexus is really setting up and trying to run with the big boys this time. The car looks promising but IMO they could have achieved better with their engine.
