Can an auto with less power beat a more powerful manual?

I don't think anyone is shocked by these results. The RC-F needs a transmission upgrade with better gearing honestly. I have an M240i now that does 0-60 in 3.8 with launch control. These old V8 Lexus F cars should be faster in theory. The new one IS500 is a real shocker to me. Despite that I would love to get my hands on the GS-F if a reasonable deal ever comes up for one.

At least the RCF looks better when losing.

Both cars are ugly. The M3 looks better than them both
