Wow that wasn't biased haha. Although the video didn't really touch on the IS's shortcomings to the MBZ and BMW, there are a few as with any car. If anything I think this video simply points out that the IS is more bang for your buck (tech, safety, convenience, reliability etc...) And for an aging car, It really does hold it's own. With that said, I love my baby !!!

Although I feel this video is definitely biased, you gotta hand it to Lexus..

As with the 2nd gen. GS, the cars they design hold up well in styling, features, etc. to similar class of cars from other manufacturers such as BMW, Infiniti, Mercedes, etc. The 2nd gen. IS is no exception..

I'm looking forward to seeing the 3rd gen, though when it comes out..

Haha, the bias was a little overwhelming. But fun to watch.

Slide the armrest back and there's another cup holder near the front of the car. At least on my car.

"Brings the 335i up to the performance benchmark set by the Is 350." Dude this video is so biased its not even funny. They totally ignore anything negative about the IS.
