HAHA but fanboys will be fanboys on those bimmer forums, no use in arguing with dumba****. I have two friends (one with an e92 m3 and the other an e90 m3) who always praise my F. And this is even though I am completely stock, its just the people that dont know cars that bash the IS-F. I am sure you've met people who buy a BMW just because its a BMW, and they think it is the best car ever!
Its the enthusiast that is able to look past brands and other gimmicks and see the car for what it is. If you can afford an IS-F, you can afford an M3. I loved the M3 growing up and especially when I was in high school.The M3 was the easy choice but I wanted to be different and try something new! So I got the F and haven't looked back since. And it doesn't hurt that the F spanks the M3 already! I can realistically see the 2nd generation F surpass the m3 if Lexus is motivated enough.

LOL. Reminds me of an argument that I had with a BMW fanboy a while back. He swore that the E92 M3 would walk all over my 4 door Lexus. We ended with me telling him to find me the fastest M3/335 in south Florida so he can get a glimpse of my exhaust tips before I make it to Tijuana. M3 fanboys are the same as supra fanboys...but the supra is actually fast 
Love both cars BTW. If the local BMW dealer believed that a kid wearing a hoodie and vans could afford an M3 I would own one.

From an old post of mine since I had both at the same time:
As many comparisons that have been done by magazines, I personally feel that they are two totally different cars. The ISF is my daily driver. After a hard day of work when you want a relaxing drive, the ISF gives it to you. The shifts are smooth and the car is quiet (though the shocks could use better rebound). The fit and finish (specially the leather seats) and reliability is amazing. When you want to drive aggressively, simply switch to manual for neck snapping shifts and torque galore.
The M3 is the weekend car when you want to have fun. The handling in the M3 is hands down better. Overall, it is a better driver's car I think.
Both great cars. Any true unbiased car enthusiast can see the merits (and demerits) in each car.
