Best Motoring has an awesome vid in their March 2007 edtion, has anyone seen it? It's extremely thorough and they have a five lap race between the four cars. They start from a roll and the IS350 seems to rocket out of the gate compared to the other 3 cars. In the end, the 335i and G35 clearly outhandled the IS and Spec.B. The results were:
G35 (tie for 1st)
335i (tie for 1st)
IS350 3rd
Spec.B 4th
Like I mentioned, they started out from a roll in a hp/weight order....so the IS350 was first, the G35 second, the 335i third, and the Spec.B last. Not surpisingly, the 335i had the best laptime. The 335i tied with the G, but also started out in third place.
The only caveat is that it is in Japanese, so I can't understand a thing what they are saying. Fortunately, you can read all the numbers posted though.
Not really a shocker. We all know that Infiniti has much more aggressive suspensions than Lexus. Have you ever driven a G35 coupe or FX45...your teeth hurt after the ride
