Four hot sports sedans go head-to-head. Who will survive the shootout between the BMW 330i, Lexus IS 300, Mercedes-Benz C320 and Volvo S60 T5?
Who do you think you would pick? I like them all but I have to go with the IS300, not because I am pro IS but.......

I love the IS.. but I think the 330 would win this one because of its BMW handling and because of its new, more powerful engine. I cant say much about BMW's interiors (ugly as hell) but I'm sure that 330 manual would edge out the IS.

well, i wouldn't be surprised if IS300 wins in a CLUB of LEXUS 
But the same matchup is featured in this month's issue of Road & Track, and i think 99% chance 330 will take it. Not because it's good, but both Road & Track and MotorTrend leans towards BMWs.

Well.....overall performance, the 330 wins hands down, but look at that price you have to pay to get all the features the IS has. Thats the reason why i bought an IS.
