Default BMW 3series vs IS

Been waiting to see an 06 IS on the road to compare to the 06 BMW. Both look awesome but I prefer the IS in SMG or BLK. What do you all think?

You're opening Pandora's Box with all its wrath by asking this question...

Do searches within our forum to get an idea if you want to know about performance, handling, quality, and such. Also, check out recent reviews by C&D, MotorTrend, etc to get various viewpoints.

If you are just asking about "looks only," I still think that BMW has a more aggressive and angular design, whereas the IS is more conservative and reserved. They share the same design characteristics as a performance sedan, but very different styles.
