keep your panties on. this is Lexus' first real try into this category. They have plenty of improvement that can be made. If they are able to be compared with these other brands that have years in this category, imagine if they were to fix all these little things they would have an awesome car!

lol narrator so much to talk about on benz and bmw....so quiet on lexus

i'd take the ISF the Merc & Bimmer because 1.where the hell am i going to find a race track?.. 2.I'm not going to be doing any top speed runs (i prefer to slide :D).. 3.it looks better.. 4. i'm sure its more luxurious 5. its cheaper.. 6. i'm a die hard fan of Japanese cars ;)

@inallthatyouare LOL That's just wishful thoughts of bimmer fans back two years ago. Because they didn't have 8 speed transmission. Now bimmer is also going after 8 speed

@gweeemonster You can't compare LFA with any BMW. LFA is a $400k super car, but BMW doesn't have any super cars.

So who won?

@Jared1452 Check JD powers bro before you talk out you're ass....

Porsche has legendary reliability, and in terms of high performance super cars......

it really doesnt get more simple then a GT3 flat 6 manual putting out huge performance numbers......

And Mercedes has 5 star build reliability on JD powers, the highest in European cars in its class...

As example

-BMW 3 stars

-toyota 3 stars

-chevy 2 stars

you must have a tinny wiener dude.....

Would anyone here spend USD 60k for a roller coaster ride they have to take to the shop after 1 month? If i am paying that kind of money i expect something that lasts
