this is a completely nonsensical statement...1st off you are making the claim that the SC is a nicer or better car than the IS...at least that is your gramatical implication...and Lexus is infamous for basically making every car the same with respect to fit/finish and available options so this point of yours is totally moot. that said the SC is slower, imo less attractive, more expensive...imo too expensive for what you get.

and to completely throw your point out the window...it is very possible for a person to like one car that a company produces and not others, despite the price point or options the cars come with...and on that note i am done with this thread.

enjoy your ugly slugs and to the original poster...go with the audi 5 series it is gorgeous and nothing beats the interior of an audi!!!

[QUOTE=APBT4Me;3528149]not in the same league? i agree they are completely different classes of cars but the SC with its porky 4.3L V8 @ over 3800lbs dry making under 290hp is a slug and a pathetic excuse for a roadster. look here...enthusiats and consumers dont like this car and i have yet to meet an SC that out run my IS350....and im not trying to claim my car is lightning quick or anything.

The only thing your IS would see if you went head to head with my porky SC would be the 5" exhaust tips on the back of my car getting smaller and smaller... also, how do you take the top down on an IS ? I didn't see that in the sales brochure.....
