From 370Z to 2011 Lexus IS-F

Well, luxury takes away that road feel. It is a fast car, and it is plush.

imo no toyota is worth 60 clams, but that's a matter of opinion, and only you know if trading a 2-seat agile sports car for a four-seat luxo box with a big engine is worth it for you.

also imo those vossens look terribad on that car, but again, personal preferences vary.

These cars are in two completely different relms. Pure sports car vs. luxury/sport 4 door. You need to evaluate what you're looking for in a car....something more practical with a punch, or an impractical sports car that is much more fun to drive.

On a side note, if your gonna spend that kinda $, why not look at the cts-v instead? Same price point, more aggressive styling, more power, and same luxury feel.

If you are thinking of an ISF then get the better car the M3 BMW. Then you can have the wow factor back.

I looked at the M3's and the C63 AMG's. Based on the 74k price tag and interior... i decided that it wasn't an option. If i could buy the M3 as a toy, then that's another story.

Every corner you take you'll be thinking about how you're dragging that extra 7 inches of wheelbase and 500 lbs. of weight through it. But if you only care about driving in a straight line, then go for it.

Point well taken, but on the same hand, is a Nissan (GTR) worth $90k using that thought train?

BTW - I looked at IS before buying my G37, and it was no contest.
