Tough call for me.

If the front end wasn't so damn ugly I'd be very temped to try the new 3.7L SHAWD TL.

I am waiting to see what the new G37 RHT looks like in person...and want to see if the IS RHT is 'real' or not.

yeah none of the above. that poll is not too extensive? =)

I do like to think the lexus is a smart purchase considering the mpg isn't too obscene and the lexus name tends to be synonmyous with longevity. Anyway, I think audi lacks both but may be the most fun car I've had the opportunity to driven. With that said, I'd like to drive an s5 for a couple years.

I'm debating on either a Suzuki or a Kia. I'd opt for a Daewoo or Yugo but they're not sold in the States anymore. Those cars have to be quieter than the rattles / creeks the IS's have.

Of all the other cars I've owned; Subaru (1), Honda (3), Acura (3), Nissan (5), Audi (1), Mazda (1), the IS is by far the most disappointing as far as interior materials / build quality is concerned.

out of the 4 choices, i would go with the g37. great styling + power (although i hope it comes with 7 speed). i don't know how the next gen IS would look like, maybe it'll change my mind. but for now, g37.

Probably a convertible 3 series, unless Lexus releases something better than that SC in a convertible.
