Is this concept or production?

The car would look 200% better if they shortened the front overhang and ditched the treble anus.

Check the headlight cluster... no way that long thin section goes into production. The whole thing will be toned way down if it ever actually comes on the market.

Lexus is chasing BMW, but they aren't stupid.

Front is...OK, rear sucks.
Sometimes Japanese just try to go too far...
No matter what...the lines will read again:
"Good try, very close, but the BMW still remains on top..."

In Camry/Accord segment looks sell the car. In our segment the performance (definitely not the -0-60 numbers, but overall balance) should be #1.

the car is very nice and it is NOT competition for the m3 because the the IS F is for the m3, this car is more toward the 6 series, really like it though

Pretty. I would look a little less strange if it had side view mirrors.

It looks interesting from behind the front wheels and back.

The rear is nice.

The front is CRAP!

Some you guys are so ignorant, it's hilarious. I love how some of you don't know anything about the car and just because it's Japanese, you say "the M3's gonna whoop it"

If the LF-A ever makes it into production, it's going to cost in the $100k range and compete in the exotic sport/luxury segment. So you M3 fanboys dont have to worry about it trying to compete with your precious M3.



(waiting for the "who's going to pay $100k for a Toyota" comments now....)
