Well said... this smacks of the computer "megahertz / gigahertz" wars of the late 90s / early 2000's. Flash forward to 2008 and it's no longer ONLY about clock-speed but, rather, about all-around performance. The same is ringing true for cars.

And UGLY copies at that. I saw my first IS-F on the freeway yesterday (101 near SFO) and BLECCHH!! What an uninspired car! It certainly photographs better than it looks in person.
