The real competition to the new M3 appears to be the new Lexus LF-A which they also showed (500 HP) but no release plans yet.
Oh well ... let's hope the new M3 is not equally disappointing. |
Well you might say LS-F may compete with a chipped 335i but comparing a modded car to a stock one is almost always a poor comparison. LS-F by its specs and by it direct market positioning by Lexus is competing against the new M3. LF-A with 2 doors only, V10, approx. 500 hp, approx. $100k is hardly competing with the E90 M3. I would say M6 would be the closest BMW competitor to LF-A.
