  • audi is awd why it does sub 8's @ring..why its BEST choice if you live west 1/3d of usa or mountainous east coast areas or rainy gulf coast(fun in rain) hp/tq #'s meaningless w traction issues

  • Biased fucking reviews...im trying to figure out which one im gonna buy and I dont need this biased crap.

  • interior is a bit showy , front looks like a whale .. complicated 8 speed .. a v8 non faster than a 335i .. toyota fan boys ''WTF '' .. exhaust is fake .. the intake sound fools you for feeling faster while you are slow .. too much too much too much of everything ... I'M NOT EVEN INTO LEXUS AND IM TELLING YOU THIS IS THE MOST RACIST TEST I EVER SAW MADE BY AN AUDI FANBOY ................ ladies and gentleman , this episode of edmunds is sponsored by k-mart , kfc and AUDI

  • I bought the rs4 since the F doesn't come in manual.

  • Haha audi over a toyota anyday. And audi costs more because it has alot better engenering than toyota lexus . Lexus is a copy of a bmw

  • @yourfast06

    Really? so a bmw or audi can go 200K miles without a problem? I don't think so. Those German cars can barely make it to 40K without major problems. Don't believe me? Check out the bimmer and audi forums. Nothing but problems with the M3 (fuel pumps and electronics) and RS4 (carbon buildup in the intake valves and electronics).

  • edmunds - isf haters

  • The 580 RS6 is relatively slow because it has over 550hp and still only gets a 4.3 in 0-60 the q7 v12 tdi loses to every other "sport suv" ie. Porsche Cayanne turbo. And the LFA beats anything audi.

  • @verdantM  Audi overprices their cars and there is nothing special about them except for the R8

  • @123Jato 580 RS6, Q7 V12 TDI they isn't special? O_o

  • I think the IS-F is the most underrated car Japan makes. Nobody cares about it. Its harder to find one than Bentley or Maserati. It's so hard to get a performance car from Japan now. One thing they forgot to mention in this video is the price difference. The IS-F costs as much as a S4, which is inferior. I don't like Lexus, but I'm glad that they tried to make a good car and they succeeded. But you people will go on buying German, even if its too much. Cars like the panamera exist because of you

  • The Audi sucks and the IS F is amazing someone paid them to make the IS F look bad.

  • @123Jato Why audi sucks?

  • "A somewhat complicated 8 speed transmission."

    Are these guys retarded? You pull the one with the + sign to shift up and the - sign to go down. Is that too complicated? What is this garbage!

  • FYI it's a true quad exhaust (4pipes from the mufflers) there re just an inch away from the quad tips that are connected to the plastic bumper to prevent it from melting. That guy need to go suck a hard dick

  • Lol it's the IS F vs BMW M3 vs C 63 AMG the Audi fell out of the competition for being too slow and very having low torque

  • @andreakatickles1 The RS4 may not have much on paper at 317 lb-ft but it still has more than the M3 (295 lb-ft). And anyway you should judge a car by its real world performance, not its numbers. On that note, the RS4 has the fastest Nurburgring lap time of all four cars:

    RS4 - 7:58

    M3 - 8:05

    C63 - 8:13

    ISF - 8:18

    Under 8 minutes around the Nordschleife....yeah that's too slow alright....

  • The real winner is the IS F

  • only lies........

  • announcer is a hater on the ISF all opinions

  • RS4 !!

  • audi RS4 is a beauty, but so as the lexus ISF, but this video is really dumb, it made the ISF look bad and the RS4 look good, but this video was sacred to do one test, is to race both car, i put money on this one, that RS4 would lose to ISF

  • these guys are tools.

  • I dont understand Edmunds' acceleration times. They're ALWAYS inconsistant with every other testing site around the world. They have the RS4 pulling upper 12s in the 1/4m while their Lexus IS-F is running low 13s? Everyone else has the RS4 in the 13s with the IS-F doing mid to upper 12s. Maybe they just dont ever break in their cars properly?

    Anyway I still think the RS4 is the better car overall. Looks 1000X better too.

  • Edmunds blows, if you wanna watch real reviews or tests on cars watch Top Gear; they know what's up.

  • Look at all the butthurt Toyota fangirl comments.

  • HUR DUR COMPARING 2WD to 4WD

  • i think d reporter is gay nd takes it up d ass

  • god... i never liked that audi a4 generation. No wonder why it didn't really sell alot compared to c class and 3 series.

  • @chltmdwp I think your an idiot!

  • @Kaykonna haha

  • I think everybody who is comparing these cars are forgetting one major factor. The Audi is good all year long, whereas the REAR-wheel drive Lexus if you live in cold-weather climate with snow/rain/sleet, etc will be in your garage for a good 3 to 4 months. That is a big deal.

    Personally, I live in NJ and winter here can last for months, that alone would be reason for me to drive the RS4...although I do find the Lexus very attractive. I didn't get the whale reference at all.

  • Why are so many of you rice rocket lovers so quick to down VW? Do you ignorant fucks realize the Bugatti Veyron EB was designed and developed by the VW group. Not to mention the 1st gen R32, and the best car VW ever produced the Corrado SLC. Know your history before you criticize one the most respected German auto makers in the world. The ISF is a decent car, but yes, it's still an overpriced Toyota. Bring back the Supra and then Toyota will be back in the game.

  • @SDBossofBosses "Do you ignorant fucks realize the Bugatti Veyron EB was designed and developed by the VW group"

    Doesn't matter who makes Bugatti. If their base market doesn't do a very good job executing their history, it still fails. CC is overpriced for what it is. And yes VW made Bugatti veyron. So what? You are saying Chinese made the gun powerder first. So what? Europeans took advantage of that to conquer half of the world with guns while Chinese used arrows.

  • Could the reviewer be anymore bias? The IS did fantastic

  • well said... lexus's starting to look like space machines

  • lexus looks boring and japanes like!!

  • The fact that he said "Toyota fan boys" makes the video sooooo obviously biased.

  • Edmund is bias. They now officially provides free BJs to Germans and German car fanboys. =D

  • GOOOOO GERMAN CARS!!!!!!!!! (except VW)

  • @alpianeb7, Audi is VW...

  • @al3x440 you are so correct

  • guys you all need to know that a car doesn't have anything to do with origin, guys i like german sedans but this LEXUS IS F, is a beast, but still fall short on MERCEDES C CLASS MAG 63.

  • i dont know i get whats cheaper. even you get isf you will have a powerful car that is better then most peoples ride

  • the achilles heel of all german cars is how much you've got to pay the dealer when they break down, which is inevitable. the audi looks better, but there is no contest as far as reliability. how many 15 year old audis do YOU see on the road

  • Comment removed

  • So Lexus riced it out with fake exhaust tips from the factory, pathetic... so is the new lfa. Put 'Secrets of Speed' into the search bar.. Trust me, it will not be a Lexus on the pic :P

  • Comparing an Audi to an overpriced Toyota is like comparing Megan Foxx to Rosanne Barr. Are you kidding me? The sheer history and proven track record of Audi tells you it's superior. Go back to Japan Lexus, the track is for the Germans.

  • @SDBossofBosses you idoit, you do realize that VW makes Audi's right? so you are comparing an overpriced toyota to an overly overpriced VW

  • embaressed the germans :D lexus is so ordinary

  • Fuck u supid!! The Lexus ISF is much better than the Audi or BMW...

  • Let me guess, you drive a lowered Civic with a big gay wing on the back, right? You are an idiot!

  • speak russian, ashole!!!

  • why are there so many trolls and haters on youtube? just watch the fucking video people!

  • Comment removed

  • Mennyi csicska tudatlan hozzászóló van itt :)

  • I should get my facts straight, sorry 9 years

  • not to be a pest but i heard bmw is trying to beat lexus in sales for the first time in almost 10-14 years. Get your facts lexus may not be the BEST but man does it come close on the first try!!!

  • is-f came out just 2 years ago and man has it made an impact. can't wait til they redesign it. I promise you ALL Lexus used this as a test just to see if it would be a hit just wait til the next one

  • haha, the lexus looks like a toy! lol

  • the lexus is more hardcore than the audi.

  • 5.0 V8 can barely hang with the 4.2 Audi? Fake exhaust? Japs have a lot to learn about building an actual rocket.

  • The Lexus didn't embarrass the Germans. The Germans know that if people want a real car, they will get the Audi.

  • Actually is more like 4.8~5.1 sec :)) That 4.3 is your dream maybe :))) German car supremacy !!!!! Audi, BMW and Mercedes rulez !!! :))

  • Yeas sir!!

  • @sunny4kill For Sho!

  • @sunny4kill 4.4 to be honest and legit

  • Edmunds is always biased against Lexus. 13.2 1/4 for the IS-F ?? Biggest BS. Nazis

  • @no1boost I agree 1/4 for the ISF is right around 12.8

  • hmm this video is very biased... the is-f time in quarter mile is around 12.7-12.8 , you wont hit 13.2 even in auto with a old lady driving. I've seen a lot of rs4's beat by is-f straight line, but the rs4 will out handle the is-f. As soon as this guy starts hes bashing the lexus already lol so mr. reviewer if you don't like the fake tips on the isf do you like the fake tips on the r8?

  • @AudiRS6Boy  bro tips on the r8 arent fake

  • Lexus are shit... yea ok fine they are reliable, but audi is getting more reliable years after years too.

  • I'm fat ?? oh yea wait I weight 58kg ... hahahaha of course I'm fat you asshole ! You mean Lexus isnt in the same league as Audi, because Lexus is a overpriced Toyota.

  • pay attention fat Emo kid. toyota/lexus is the most reliable marque on earth. period. use your chubby slimy fingers and check any reliable car webpage.

    audi is just a overpriced douche mobile. and u must be the typical fat country kid that likes to give lapdances to older men and give BJ to strangers in dark alleys.

    fat Emo kid that likes douche mobiles,

    please die.

  • LOLLOLOLOL I cant say anything else than LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL at your stupid ignorant comment... go drive your boring as fuck car and leave me alone... oh and kill yourself also.

  • And that's not true.

    VW - Wolfsburg

    Audi - Ingolstadt

  • I don't think the IS-F can compete with the RS4. Lexus seems like more of a luxury sedan rather than sport, it's nice but if i was to choose the RS4 would definitely be my wheels.

  • The production of RS4 ended when production of IS-F started and still, it beats it. Lexus has a terrible suspension, it will break your spine on a road.

    I've driven the all new B8 S4 on a track against Lexus IS-F and my best lap was by 1.83 second FASTER.

    It's only a S4, but it's got a brilliantly smooth 3.0 V6 333 HP and new sport differentail that allows for higher cornering speed.

    LMAO, Lexus can't even compete with the current S4, the next RS4 and RS5 will completely annihilate the iS-F.

  • you don't know shit about cars

    lexus has one of the best suspension in the cars which made it one of the luxuries cars in the world

    audi always tries to beat lexus in commercials and market

    they never won

    Lexus, MB, and BMW are the best car producers in the world

  • What the fuck do YOU know about cars? ISF isn't an ordinary Lexus, it's rock hard, brick hard!

  • what do you mean it's rock hard?

    did you mean it rocks or you meant it's as hard as a rock?

  • It's hard enough to be called uncomfortable or useless or whatever.

  • There are no honours for this video.

  • The Audi RS4 is a BETTER car. Get over it.

  • Ive said it many times and I will say it again: EDMUNDS HATES LEXUS.

  • and they have reasons to ... lexus sucks.

  • Why would they? Can't you get over it that out of production car beats Lexus that just entered production?

  • I personally love the IS-F. Compared to the M3 and RS4, it's definitely third in competition but I'd buy one just to have something different for a change. I'd need a manual though...

  • 13.2 1/4 THATS BAD..IS350 DO 13.3

  • this entire video was so bias its not even funny

  • RS4 r*ped it! As it should the IS-Fail! It is a granny driving sh*tbox with an auto slushbox!

    The IS-Fail has been a big flop and Toyota is planning on discontinuing soon since the sales are completely sh*t with a few IS-F collecting dust at the dealerships. All the sales of the M3 and remaining of C63 simply killed the IS-F.

    RIP IS-F

  • man

    this is the 1st time Lexus does a car like that and its comparing with Mercedes C63 and BMW M3

    for how many years they have been doing fast cars

    this is the 1st car for Lexus

  • IS-F rocks,i love it

  • japanese cars suck when put up against german ones

  • its not japanese its american. when lexus first came out it was only in the USA the a year later it was in japan and the UK.

  • yeah it is, doesnt matter if it came out first in the states, its a product of toyota, toyota is japanese

  • yep

  • yes,and audi it's a product of VW so shut up.

  • yeah whats your point, VW is german, and toyota is japanese

  • yes, Toyota/Lexus are the most reliable cars of the world since 1990(source:CONSUMER REPORTS) stop.

  • It is very hard (I would say closer to impossible, nothing is simpossibe though) to beat the company that produces a high performance all-wheel-drive cars for more than 30 years now.

    Audi had kicked and will continue to kick asses no mather what you throw at them.

  • jaja wow edmunds sucks...... audi pay off lol. isf will take the rs4 out in quarter mile and 0 to 60 been proving by other test comps

  • BMW is Brutal Money Waste

  • Goddamn could you get any more biased???

  • I know right. it so obvious this is biased.

  • bias ass opinions

  • For Sure

  • @namanp

    Couldnt agree with you more.

  • does anybody actually know what BMW stands for besides Bavarian Motor Works?

    it means bROKEN mOTHERFUCKING wASTE-OF-MONEY

    Lexus owns German cars asses then it spanks them and reminds those bitches who's boss.

  • HMM bmw problems bullshit? Your full of shit . check consumer reports for 3 year or older bmw. Hmm check internetautoguide and see how many recalls bmw has compared to Lexus. It may not sell as good in europe only because europeans are assholes unlike us Americans that are open minded we buy cars that are built with Quality.

  • Damn. I really didn't expect the Lexus to pull more g's on the skidpad.

  • commentator was bias from the get go... seems like he's all over european cars which isnt so bad. Both cars are great but reliabilty wise.... I'd go with the lexus. RS4's are pretty badass though got to admit...

  • Call me a fan boy, but considering the amount I would pay for either cars, how unreliable Audis are and how the hold no value whatsoever, I think i will go with the Lexus. Lexus is just too fkn smooth.

  • Unreliable? the A4, A6 gets nearly full rating for reliability in JD surveys. Times have changed. Lexus isn't even the most reliable brand any more.

  • some bs numbers. ISF easily does the 1/4 under 13 seconds. 4.8 to 60 come on my mom could do that.

  • The Lexus is more luxurious. But that's it. The RS4 is faster, more fun to drive, more reliable, and less show-offy. The IS-F actually gets to 60 in 4.5 seconds (instead of 4.8 as they claimed), but the IS-F is quite a bit pricier. Obviously, the RS4 is the better car. And in most situations (if not, all), I think Audis are some of the best priced luxury cars around. Who charges just $70,000 for a super luxury sedan (while the Mercedes S550 is $90,000)? Interesting. GO AUDI! RS4- 94%, IS-F - 82%

  • i think u need to own both cars before you say all the stupid things u just said lexus is faaar more reliable i have had many audis the v10 S8 has issues and the structure bends out of shape making the panels look out od alignment. my RS-4 had problems too the engine would have spurts of power then sometimes feel like a dog even with S on and esp off completely, then when it has 13,000 miles the big fancy front brakes everyone praises failed and we crashed my ls460 had no problems not 1

  • I was a little biased toward Audi in my comment, but it truely is more fun to drive. I've been in both, and when coming home from work, I would probably want an RS4 rather than an IS-F. And it's faster too. The TT is $35,000 and the SC430 is $65,000? Why the hell is that? The A4 is $28,000 and the IS250 is $32,000. Why the hell is that? The Lexus is not a bad car, but the RS4 definitely the better car in this competition, and I'm not being biased towards the Audi. That's a true fact.

  • I had the same experience with my 06 M3. Poor reliability. It handled great but it had too many problems. My current IS350 has been flawless.

  • pricier... well it depends in which country. In Canada the is-f is 64400$ and the RS4 96000$!!! The M3, equipped like the is-f is 83000$. Here, if you want to spend around 65k on a car you get a S4, 335i well equipped or the is-f.

  • I wrote a comment that was precisely 500 characters to you, though it said it was too long, so I left a message on your profile responding to you.

  • ok... I never recive the message!!!

    and by the way, is250 in canada 31,7k

    a4 = 41,2k!!!  Audis are really expensive here!!!

  • Well in the US the 09 A4 is $30,000 flat and the IS250 is $31,000. That's not a huge difference, but what about when you have a $35,000 TT versus a $65,000 SC430?

  • This video is bias toward the Audi.

  • Id like to love that Audi but that is a seriously bad looking face on that car. And being AWD you know its going to be driven by softcocks

  • the japanese cars is most beautiful and most performance, do not compare with German cars!!

  • This video is dumb, it's so biased towards the Audi

  • this is the most biased video ive ever seen. for cars this similar, lets not mention the audi costs 10 grand more... or take into account how the audi will spend more time being fixed then on the road... i'd take the lexus over the audi any day.

  • this video isnt about all of the money or the shop time, its about performance and which vehicle they like more, theres nothing biased about them choosing which car they like more

  • Then take your toyota and f..k off!!

    What's the problem?!

  • toyota is making ricers straight from the factory now :] ....AUDI forever!!

  • "Toyota" isnt even in the same league as BMW/AUDI...what a joke.

  • its wierd, the magazine i read made the ISF quicker than both the M3 AND RS4. i dunno, sometimes i see comparisons being biased and it goes both ways, i think which manufacturer pays more to get their car to "win".

  • I like the exhaust

  • the audi is a beautiful car

    that is f is a weird looking car

    they are trying to hard

  • Hey ive raced my friends modded lexus is350 with a stock 335. From a 40mph roll in second gear I pulled on him everytime.

    By putting a visnu proceed in the 335 along with a exhaust you could beat the isf.

    The new bmw m3 really whips the isf in the turns. The lexus isf has an annoying beeping sound. And all this weird stuff.

    You dont even need 8 gears.

    The m3's handling is so amazing. The cars have the same amount of power. But the m3 kills the lexus in handling. And in styling.

  • If you think a Lexus is better quality than a BMW or Audi, shoot yourself.

  • opel,audi , vw shits!!! bmw is not better than lexus shoot urself!!!

  • the reviewer is biased towards the lexus. i mean looks are subjective and it's powerful but comparing it to a AWD car doesn't seem right. they should of compared it with the M3.

  • had a non biased, educated person produced this video it would have been great.

  • I've never watched a more openly and unprofessionally biased comparison. He might as well not have done the review.

  • As Usual the Lexus rules...

  • You computer geek AUDI yuppie fanboys in ILV should learn how to drive and stop spinnin' the tires on the ISF!! Fkin, ISF engine too much?? Let go of your right foot dumbasses!!! Audi burns rubber? I saw no rubber burnin' in the AUDI!!...

  • rs4 m3 power

    fuck lexus

  • reminding to everyone lol that this is lexus first attempt of making a sports car from a lux sedan so yeah its a good start. M3 and the RS4 i like them too... i reckon the test should of been compared with the IS-F and the 2008 BMW M3 as both has rear wheel drive.

  • this guy might as well jerk off to the RS4....the IS-F is so much better

  • wow that toyota is-f is crap.

  • ? are you...are you serios? id love to hear your reason as to "why" :)

  • its crap compared to the rs4. sorry why spend 60k on a toyota when you could have a nice ass c63, m3 sedan or coupe, or even the rs4? what i said was stupid. the toyota is-f isn't really crap but it just doesn't add up to the rs4 , m3's, and c63.

  • regardless, its still a lexus...the bread and butter in todays auto industry.

  • lol seriously? toyota? you realize that most race engines are built by the japanese right? hahaha. i like both cars, the is-f more, but im not going to say something stupid like toyota can't make engines. the quality is equal to, and in some ways better than Audi's. Check the websites. wow

  • yeah but i dont understand how the is350 beats the 335i in quarter mile? and than in one of the is-f videos they say something like "the is-f is not that much faster than the 335i". how can they say that? sorry for my comment i like lexus but if it was a choice between the m3 coupe or sedan, c63, rs4, or is-f. the is-f would be most likely my last pick but thats just me.. its still a hot car.

  • is-FUGLY. Tone it down Lexus, less is more. You can do soooo much better.

  • IS-FAIL lol

  • edmunds are retarded, they compared the STi to a fking mustang

  • IS-F is targetting a younger audiance. which is why it's the car for me.

  • edmunds, you are a bunch of fags. your opinions are fucking lame. edmunds employees go fuck yourselfs for being the WORST place to go to for information. enthusiasts? no FAGGOTS.

  • and how many AUDI's do you people see break down, and electrical problems that they can't seem to fix correctly? compare to Lexus,...none..!

  • They dont break down because they are Toyotas with leather seats.
