Sadly for BMW that's probably true lol

Such an awesome comparison picture set. The M4 looks a bit more classy, and I do prefer the interior 'design' (less squarish more artistic), but I know which I'd choose in a heart beat and it doesn't have 6 cylinders

Really liking the way the lexus is turning out, but they should offer blackline trim on it to make it more sporty, and maybe different wheels. What transmission is being used in the RC-F?

Maybe I'll change my mind when I see the F in person. But as of right now I'm leaning toward the M. Better looking wheels. And I prefer their interior over the IS-look-alike interior. With regard of horrible reliability, I guess you have three years to decide whether it's worth keeping.

not the best interior pics were chosen in comparsion. Should be either black or red, that gray color is ugly, reminds me of an old persons gray hair, doesnt belong in this car.

Interesting, I find the interior of the M4 more desirable. The square-ness of the stereo bothers me as do lines in the seating.

front is subjective, the M to me looks small like it got squished. RCF looks more muscular

the interior at night in the RC-F will be even better
door lights and gauges will really pop

i think the m4 looks more solid/classy by far though albeit very plain

The RC-F looks even better with the spoiler deployed. To have a proper fair comparison, the spoiler should be deployed in its pictures with M4.
