I was at the LA auto show convention yesterday and watched Lexus unvail their new IS F Lexus due to come out next year...It's Lexus's fastest production made car to date...

416hp
5.0 liter V8
4.6 seconds 0-60mph
8 speed transmission (worlds first)

It looks nice and sounds like a jet on the dyno...

Lexus finally makes a true sports car....
 
Yeah it's the IS-F maybe a moderator can fix the headline...That was a typo...


A Lexus that finally matches up to the Supra tt's....About time... I sure wouldn't mind swapping in that 8 speed manual tranny, sounds awesome...
 
Fixed the title to read IS-F; I just wish I could fix the fugly car as easy as the title of the thread.......

It's a real pity they couldn't have taken all those fantastic go fast bits and put them into a nicely designed body like Ferrari's 599GTB (which I still say is a MKIV Supra knockoff). Then they'd really have something.
 
From what ive heard those quad exhausts are fake lol and they look average , but it does have a two stage induction system, where if the revs go above 3500rpm a second intake track is opened alowing more air in and a more aggressive sound.Looks the goods to me tho!
 
Well this IS-F sounds like a boosted car when rev'd, no lie...I was very impressed with the sound of the motor and exhaust. Everyone else at the dyno rack thought so too...


The quad exhaust looks ok in person, a little different but it has a bit of an aggressive look to it.....I also think this car is good to go for a Lexus and it packs a little punch too which is a change from the norm.....

It's not the greatest looking car on the planet nor the fastest, but I think it is a good start for a perfomance built production Lexus wouldn't you say?

It's funny at the car show it seems every car now sports near 400bhp and goes 0-60mph in four second range...I think that is becoming a standard WOW how times and cars are changing... Shoot I sat in the Jeep with the Hemi that does 0-60mph in the low 4's... It's getting silly how fast the newer cars are becoming..

My favorite car at the big car show remains to be the Austin Martin Vanquish Convertable, and it is just is a fabulous looking car... I saw the top Ferrari's, Porshce's, Bentley, Lotis, Merc's. Spyker's, Maserati, you name it...It's the Austin Martin Conv. Vanquish that stood out to me...Although the Ferrari F4 and the sports Bentley are a close second and third... To bad this Vanquish car is major bank and the tranny has issues but it is my choice for the second year in a row......
