Motor Trend :2008 BMW M3 vs. 2008 Lexus IS F vs. 2008 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG
http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...son/index.html
1st Place BMW M3 Speed, balance, and athleticism converge in today's best compact, high-performance sport sedan. 2nd Place MERCEDES-BENZ C63 AMG A solid, emotive machine that works as everyday transport-and accelerates like a first-gen Viper. 3rd Place LEXUS IS F Lexus's first effort in this category is a good one, lacking in only the finest of details. |

The Sedan looks sweet in that pic!
Were these test done seperate? Because the #'s are the exact same as the individual test's that have been done over the past month or so. |

This is a more relevant comparo than the recent one (M3 coupe vs new MB C63 AMG, and Audi RS4). You just cannot compare the coupe vs sedans, and the Audi is an old fart (the new Lexus makes more sense).
Thanks for sharing. |
