  • It's easy to be dutch, you understand dutch german and engilsh :)

  • Just to sum this all up, I love japanese cars, and german cars, but My friend works for bmw, and their in and out of the dealership as many times as u can blink a day, and im not over exxagerating, u have to remember more features to a luxury car = more reliability issues, more moving parts, etc...

  • plus, the most important thing, is that Japanese have never been successful in their marketing planning, but they simply tried to hit Germans only by engineering figures: say, if Germans produce 5 step gearbox, they go for 6, or if Germans had 100 Hp, they would go for 101Hp and so on. But this doesn’t really pay off much, because what really attract the customer are not the engineering figures but the driving experience, safety, comfort and status.

  • Keep on that Cheap Toyota....

    you'll never be as good as BMW or Mercedes-Benz......

    haha good bye..... XD

  • @Howie262 wut a stupid comment...lexus is the best selling luxury brand in the US with high repeat customers...bmw and benz will never have the same reliability as lexus...and u will never own any of them...lol

  • @rsxzx6r Mercedes-Benz has a customer following second to no body bro, Saab as well. Do your research.

    Lexus ISF/ LFA performance cars have below average reliability marks acording to Consumer reports...

    Lexus may have very reliable cars, but there performance line clearly shows otherwise....

    btw i'll list the cars that i own...

    Mercedes-Benz Cosworth 2.3v16

    Saab9-5

    and a Cummings Diesel.

    so infact i do own many high quality cars.

    you on the other hand drive a honda civic and a PT cruiser.

  • @Howie262 ur wrong....mercedes has lost alot of customers due to poor reliability issues...hence the reason lexus is the best selling luxury brand in the USA...LFA reliablity?...isnt it still early for that...dont kno where u get ur source....lol...no i dont drive a shitt pt cruiser...only rednecks do

  • @rsxzx6r Check your facts..... over 80% of first mercedes buyers will buy a second mercedes....

    this is fact....

    saab has the same statistics...

    although for saab due to their ownership change may be better or worse......

  • @Howie262 u might want 2 recheck that....why is Lexus the number one luxury brand in the US with the best consumer survey?...and Saab?...really?...they are almost bankrupt....

  • @rsxzx6r Listen retard... you dont even know what you're arguing about anymore...

    read my comments again, and form an argument.

    and btw you wouldnt know the first thing about saab lol, XD

    little boy...

    My argument was clear... and is fact (TOP GEAR) - " Mercedes has a customer following second to no one"

    this has nothing to do with US market or what ever you're talking about bro.

    this just has to do with customers re-buying products...

    good bye.

  • @Howie262 wow...retard quoting top gear....like they arnt bias....dumbass...Mercedes has the WORST reliability...dont just watch fuckin tv clips do some research....consumer reports...jd power..etc...and nobody knows anything about buying saab...cuz no one buys them...lol

  • @rsxzx6r 1st of all bro... You= gay.

    I dont get my info from top gear... im just stating a general qoute...

    Show me where it says " Mercedes-Benz is the most Un-reliable car"

    I wont hold my breath.. bro..

    ill show you videos of "Destroying a mercedes "

    Consumer reports have to do with cost's that arise...

    shure mercedes might be expesive to fix, but look how long they last.

    if you dont know this, thats the elementary reason you dont get it...

    good bye ricer.

  • @Howie262 listen "bro"...if you weren't aware there is a list of vehicles that are based on repairs that shows the most reliable to the least reliable cars...mercedes is at the top of that unreliable list...JD power has a top ten most reliable ..and there are 4 lexus on that list...forbes and consumer reports have most unreliable luxury cars..bmw, mercedes all made it..theres ur proof "bro" and you dont need to look up anything on saab...everyone knows how well they are doin...lol

  • @rsxzx6r Eh, im done arguing with some one who has no style or knowledge about cars.

    Bottom line bro, you mad.

    Good bye Ricer.

  • @Howie262 lol...u saw the list....nothing more to argue..

  • @rsxzx6r What list are you talking about?

    I just looked and every single 2011 line up they had....

    ITS AVERAGE XD

    you fucking lozer....

    dont message me again

    you= mad....

  • @Howie262 lol..u = mad....jd power list...consumer report list...forbes list....just accept it...ur in denial...its not avg...its THE WORST RELIABLE CAR to own...hence people switching to Lexus and now its number one luxury brand in America...if u had facts i'd shut up...but u dont...i like mercedes 2...but i will never own one..til they are reliable

  • @rsxzx6r Like i said i looked in over 3 categories... Quality, Performance and Reliability...

    And mercedes in all of them were far from the bottom in fact...

    for " Initial sturdiness quality " guess the only car to have 5 stars in every single category ?

    Porsche...

    Mercedes had no less then 5 stars despite one category of the Quality Report.

    Just like Lexus, you have no argument.

    Besides JD powers is ill legitimate seeing how they compare Porsche to acura really ? lol

  • @Howie262 i didnt say quality...im sure bmw, mercedes, lexus all have high quality..with high price tags....im talking about reliablity...that is a huge factor for alot of customers who are repeat buyers...they repeat based on past experience...which mercedes is nice..but again..reliability is terrible...top ten worst...while lexus is top ten best reliable

  • @rsxzx6r good bye, i already saw the figures.

    tell it to your congress man.

    you mad bro.

  • @Howie262 glad u saw the figures...now u kno...mercedes worst in reliability..

  • @rsxzx6r Nope, infact Mercedes had the best reports of all the German rivals.... Not including Porsche of course. Porsche had nearly perfect marks in all categories.

    Both companies are from Stuttgart...... (You couldnt even point to it on a map bro)

    so anyways Troll.

    you're wrong

    good bye.

  • @Howie262 u are a retard...are u looking up mercedes reliability?...its the worst...ur def in denial...and ur right i couldnt point out stuttgart...that shows how much the companies mean...look up real reviews

  • @rsxzx6r Keep on that false shit bro, i already sent you the link that debunked your argument.

    you're fabricated.

    keep having that small asian penis bro.

    good bye.

  • @Howie262 lol...denial is a bitch...u get everything wrong...even mercedes owners on their forums talk about how bad the reliability is...just google mercedes reliability...retard ...and u will c...even mercedes acknowleges they have bad reliability and tryin to change it...u like lookin at asian dicks?...lol

  • @rsxzx6r I can go all day Troll....

    You're wrong.

    Mercedes has cars in record for the longest lasting chassis in history. One in particular was driven by a Greek Taxicab driver...

    had like over 2 million miles on it, i forget.

    Better yet, you should research it....

    in the mean time, keep sucking on our big german cocks.

    you pathetic lozer.

    bro, you're either retarded, or your'e will fully ignorant... to bring up this data, because you have no data to support your claims, however i do....

  • @Howie262 lol...big dicks, small dicks ...u like em all huh...faggot....u just cant put out things...u need to have reference to back up ur statement..."record for the longest lasting chassis"?...where did u read this?...even if its true...(america trucks have long lasting chassis as well)...doesnt mean they are reliable...again...according 2 consumer reports, JD power, even merc owners...THEY ARE THE WORST RELIABLE CARS along with BMW and porsche..stop looking at dicks and accept the truth..lol

  • @rsxzx6r Mercedes Benz acording to JD powers, is the highest ranked German car company in the field of reliability.

    This is fact, re check your chart, you're miss reading it. Infact it clearly states in the category of Exterior sturdyness reliability it has 5 stars....

    Toyota has 3 stars as an example.

    good bye bro.

    you're clearly mad :D.

    good bye.

  • @Howie262 highest ranked GERMAN car vs highest ranked car is 2 diffent things...all german cars are unreliable...lol...everyone knows jap cars are the most reliable...and how do u even kno im asian?...lol...guess u assume all asians like lexus?...anyways ur research is terrible...the same JD power i read ranks mercedes at the top....of the MOST UNRELIABLE...what did u google?..i want 2 read and see that list..

  • @rsxzx6r The Category i labeled was clear..........

    Read my comment again. Go to JD power look up Exterior Reliability.

    As example Porsche, Mercedes, and Lexus all have 5 stars....

    Toyota has 3 stars.

    see im sorry, i like to actually let the facts do the talking. Not just use ricer logic.

    keep driving that Riced out RSX XD

    have a good one guy.........

  • @Howie262 lol...continuing a 5 month old argument.....lexus and toyota are the same dumbass...everyone knows wuts reliable...u dont need to read to kno that....but even reviewers agree with the census...but wutever makes u feel gud about urself...u feel like a win

  • @rsxzx6r Yeah i was gone for 4 months for annual army training....

    that's what i was doing,

    see ya guy.

  • man are you gonna get rid of that snot wad in your mouth or what

  • 12 moms on youtube disliking this...-.-

  • A nice change , I'm getting tired of the ugly german cars in Holland. They all look like "Pantserwagens", or german army vehicles. I'm sure the quality and driving is something the germans can learn from!!

  • Seductive!!!

  • i have 2011 bmw m3 and my friend has 2011 Lexus isf, both cars are amazing but the lexus was superp great handling ,so we raced on the highway and i was beaten badly.now i wana go back to bmw dealer and return this piece of junk i bought,

  • @Abdihakim308 Finaly someone finds out how german cars realy are! The Netherlands is a hostile place when you disgust german cars and love Lexus and another great car ; Alfa Romeo.

  • @MaRtiniNugget Least it doesn't look as bland. All you see is lexus. And a toyota. But I can't tell the difference besides the logo. Not even the logo. Lowl its the same circle.one just has an 'L' in it.

  • @WorldOfIvillis the isf looks nothing like any toyota? thats a pretty stupid comment man.

  • @MrNipsi You can see similarities. anyways the car looks uneven. the exhaust i can see they tried something new but its just doesnt go with the back design like that.

  • @MaRtiniNugget I don't drive yet but I plan to get a new camaro. Or even maybe a hyundai.

  • @MaRtiniNugget Lowl my mommy owns a bmw my daddy owns a porsche. Yes I totally am.

  • @MaRtiniNugget because everyone who doesn't like lexus is just jealous... rofl.. great logic moron

  • Lexus IS F= Lexus Is Fail.

  • dude, can I borrow that?

  • 0.53sec....either the car is massive or this guy is a tiny midgit!

  • Listen to the sound of this majestic beast. It's almost akin to going into battle. This is as primal as it gets.The m3 engine sounds like its wheezing from TB or some other lung disease compared to the IS-F.

  • TOYOTA?!!! WAT EEN BELEDIGING

  • R$ 400.000 in Brazil.. hahaahahah..

  • Impreza Turbo das pas snel,deze ook alleen moet je wel stuur recht houden ,

    Superluxe auto,kwaliteit hoog maar geen racemonster is die niet voor bedoelt..

    echt.

  • damn,i need one of these to impress some hot ladies in my neighborhood...

  • @pinger56 hey man,

    impress them with your personality and not with your gadgets...ok

  • There are so many defensive BMW owners commenting on the IS-F videos. I wonder why!

  • there are jealous, its a complyment that htey have so much time to bitch at this car, audi s4/ m3/ c63 / isf are all great cars!!

  • @basgetz RS4 competes with M3 and C63, NOT S4.

  • im getting old :)

  • @bsg1206 haha I totally agree! I will tell you why...The fact that Lexus has come out with a 416 hp 5.0L V8 BEAST that competes with their darling little M3 and what not...Germans are the King in gadgets and electronics but they have NO CLUE on how to build quality vehicles like Lexus does...period. Be scared, be VERY scared... : )

  • No need to compare this car with any cars.. Lexus will find buyers for their cars..but will not really convert..the AMG/M3 crowd...loyalist to the end.

  • LOL I WANT 1

  • LEXUS IS FASTEST .

  • In terms of Luxury and Interior quality, the entire Lexus IS line owns the BMW 3 series line.

    hands down, i've sat in both many times

  • I also like the Lexus interiour better .... but there's some plastic buttons in the Lexus that look like they came off a 1998 Toyota.

    You're not gonna find that in a BMW.

  • are you kidding me?! there's plastic everywhere on the dash of a BMW! and BMW still uses fake leather, which i dont know why they still do that, it degrades the brand

  • ofcourse there's plastic on the dash ... but I was talking about those ugly black buttons like the ones that operate the seat memories and headlights on the Lexus.

    and fake leather isnt really leather ... so no BMW dose not use fake leather.

  • lol the memory buttons? lol do u want those made of gold, of course they are made of plastic!

    my friend drives 135, and he even told me they are fake plastic. you dont know what you're talking about

  • lmfao... dude... what are you 12 ?

    have you ever been in a IS ....?

    look at the damn memory seats buttons and electric windows buttons ... they look like they come straight off a 1992 Mercedes Benz .

  • what are you? a high school drop out? tell me, if those buttons aren't made of plastic, what should they be made out of? metal? don't make me laugh

    i own an i250awd and i'm taking chemical engineering.

  • i saw one, about a week ago guys the engine sound was awesome, deep and loud

  • My father have a IS250 Awd 2009 that i use to drive sometime and I can tell you that the noise(that look a lot similar to the is F) is aweesome!!!

  • well i own an is250 2009, and i will tell you that the noise is SILENT. Lol....there is no noise in the is250 so i dont know what you've been driving.

  • sry but the noise is like the same but not that loud... but its true that the car doesn't make sound until your going over 4000 rpm

  • idk what you're hearing but the IS250 sounds nothing like the IS F... my dad has the IS F

  • how can you compair then?

  • we were going to pick up a silver one in NY but they claimed they messed up and sold it to someone else instead, basically someone bought it for alot more haha... so he was like, i have a IS 350 with

    F sport stuff, and a manual IS 250 here if you want to try... tried them out for the hell of it... 250 quiet, F sport wasn't pleasant... the pitch of the exhaust just hurt, and didn't have to rev high either... went to MA and got a blue one and it's amazing... so i can compare

  • hehehe youre right Mob, hahaha is completely silent! my dad have an IS350 there is almost no sound at all...

  • LEXXXUS.

  • I like both Bimmer and Lexus.

    They're both awesome.

  • I luv the IS F...but im waiting for the GS F to come out

  • me too xD

  • i dont know what hes saying but, im sure hes saying the ISF IS THE BEST FUckING CAR IN THE WORLD!!!!

  • hahahah hell yeah

  • Awesome.

    423hp

  • lol B.M.W (B)roken (M)otherfuckin (W)aste-of-money

  • Wtf??

    Go get a shitty american car then.

    Why do you americans always have to rip on everything that's not theirs and/or always claim that they're the best.

    Seriously you're not. The only people who think you are are the americans themselves.

  • Woe, calm down! That's not true of all Americans!

    Every car me and my family have owned has either been a BMW, Lexus, or Audi. They are amazing cars!!!

    BUT, I hate how people get on youtube and freak out when someone states an opinion.

    I am American and personally hope that the current economy situation is the end of American car companies, because they are junk.

    But just because that's my opinion doesn't mean you can attack me or anyone else.

  • Yeah ofcourse not all americans, glad to see you're a rational fella.

    And even though I have a strong dislike to american built cars I don't hope the american car companies go down the drain. Because there'll be way to many jobless people in America.

    It's like.. I don't give a shit about 'AMERICA' as a country but it's still individuals who suffer so..

    Well.. thanks for showing me I don't have to lose hope meeting a rational american in real life.

  • (to DutchManticore)

    I guess that's true about the jobs.

    I really never though about it that way.

  • Comment removed

  • LOL! Holy fuck, I thought he was speaking english till about 2:13

  • LOL! he's speaking dutch lmaoo

  • Lexus is slowly but surely tightening the vice on its competitors. They are flush with so much cash from their parent company that they can afford to experiment with this type of product.

  • Yes, they do have the money all right but building the LS600h seems to be too quick simply because the gas mileage is on par with the conventional. The excess weight seems too much and it costs dramatically more than the conventional. Maybe I'm wrong.

  • that car is butt ugly its a piece of shit nissan sucks ass.

    try toyota....

    The is-f is only automatic compared to the manual M3. If you know what you're doing, the M3 will get you somewhere a few seconds faster.... however the IS-F styling gives the M3 a run for the money.

  • stupid ass! that's a lexus not nissan

  • its a fucking lexus, thus toyota, not nissan. -__-

  • what a dumb ass haha lexus goes with toyota n lexus is not a nissan get your shit straight DUMB ASS :]

  • People who drive BMW arent aholes. They just dont know that Lexus is a better car, or they are willing to sacrifice performace, luxury, and technology for that BMW emblem. =)  Japanese V8 is scuuuuurrryy. Watch out.

  • its almost like hes speaking a different language...

  • PPL WHO DRIVE BMWS ARE ASSHOLES WHO HAVE NO TASTE. THIS CAR LOOKS MUCH NICER THAN THAT NEW M3. THE NEW 335d LOOKD BETTA THAN THE NEW M3.

  • why is there bmw ppl watching this anyways , bunch of fgts, jus fuckin scared of the lexus v8 . FIRST year for this car and european fgts are already sweating, lol. give it a couple more years of development and it lead the class jus like every other class (ie. LS LX RX series) putos

  • Flem ! Flem ! Flem !

    Sorry thats all I heard from the guy.

  • i like the shape

  • LEXUS IS F(aggoty). =] BMW 4 Life.

  • ...why bother..

    its a lexus video

    just shows the arrogance of BMW fans

  • ur F(aggoty) - ill take this over any BMW

  • 2009 Nissan GT-R rulez u fools.

  • gt-r is not in the same class sorry about the compare

  • Yeah, GT-R is Wayyyyyyyyyyy Better, U so smart.

  • of course its better but the comparison is not logical for me

  • its 20k more

  • that car is butt ugly its a piece of shit nissan sucks ass.

  • U so smart, you will be looking at my GT-R's big beautiful ass as I blow pass you and yo Momma. Word to your motha, fool.

  • do you mean this car is ugly?? You idiot! And it's not a damn nissan , it's a Lexus if you know what that is:)

  • I was talking about a nissan to someone else not this lexus.

  • Fugly car. Balooga whale look-alike. Still way behind the competition in EVERY comparison test (around 10 - 15 of them in US and Europe). RS4, C63 owned it in every test. M3 still remains the benchmark as expected.

  • You are pretty ignorant if you think that Lexus is way behind any of its competitors in any way. For one thing, it smokes BMW, Mercedes, and every other luxury automaker on the planet in sales. So most of the people who can afford them get a Lexus. For another, it accelerates to 60 mph faster than an M3. It is many times more luxurious and reliable than its competitors, and it also costs a good 10 grand less.

  • Webtvrides has a vid of the IS F beating the RS4 in all three events, (0-80, slalom and lap time) so I don't know what your talking about.

  • ill take the gtr anytime...this car is nice but gtr is faster with v6

  • What an ignorant comment. A V6, yes, but with two turbos.

  • Meh...just the same ol stuff on more steriods. What's so special? The idiot that said "a motorbike will pwn EVERYTHING"...yes we know that already stop comparing two different things moron.

  • its aight..

  • This car is fucking HOT!!!!

  • lexus is-f.simply.the best of the best fuck the rest.

  • With Great Power Comes Great ? BMW has set the Bar and Now the others are jumping it? BMW better watch it because the dont have a Toyoya Line or Scion Line to fall back on!
