This damn car is killing me. I want to love it, but that bulging hood is not working. I hate BMW. I don't want to give them props for anything, but when you look at the M3, the essential 3 Series lines are preserved. When you look at the IS-F, I don't think that anybody could argue that this is not the case. What makes this even more disturbing is that the IS is a flat *** gorgeous car. If Lexus could have maintained those lines...with that body...Jesus, you have yourself a hot chick with a 130 IQ, and a personality to match. You do the math.

Is the steering wheel stitching blue or is that a reflection?

I like the interior. The hood I can deal with but the front bumper looks out of proportion and the rear tail pipes are ugly IMO. Like the wheels and the tail lights though. The fender, I'm not too sure about but they could grow on me.
