Lexus is-f coupe?

younter · 12-09-2011, 07:36 PM

Well. is being a long debate either the is-f will make the coupe version or not.
we all have know that the Bmw m3, Mercede-Benz C63 have already had the coupe version coming out for the competetion. Will the IS-F create a new generation that comes with a new blow out?

anyone got any thought?

Meh... I'd still go for the M3 if I had the loot

At this point if I am leaning towards an Audi RS5, when it arrives, the M3 is nice but I know they are changing the motor again soon and the Lexus never interested me.

Yes but, they are dropping the V8 for a turbo six. Likely the last m3 v8 too

Yeah, I either need to get a V8 M3 now or will go for the Audi.

Doesn't look right with 2 doors

bigsix · 12-11-2011, 01:35 PM

I like the idea of a Lexus 4-door muscle car (i.e. IS-F)

A coupe version doesn't appeal to me.
Neither does the C63 AMG coupe;
However, the M3 is perfect as a 2-door sports sedan.

A smaller Lexus model made as a coupe with a powerful 4-cylinder (turbo or supercharge) could be cool.

takjak2 · 12-11-2011, 07:44 PM

I don't think it needs a 2-door version at all. I've been in an IS-F around the track. It's a fast luxury sedan. Who wants it in a coupe?

Lexus parts

I know this has been long posted. Just a heads up if im not mistaken this is the redesigned version of GS which had some flaws on the first introduction to the market...But the IS coupe is such a different thing since there might no question with regards to the performance.
