Who was it here that predicted :

I knew it was crap when I saw the stacked "quad" exhaust for the first time.

The quad exhaust pipes, which aren't even connected to anything, prevent me from taking this car seriously on any level.

There are many premium cars that have "fake" exhausts. The Audi R8 and Lamborghini 460 LP are two examples

lambo

r8

does anyone else call theirs "resonators"... no.

blech.

I thought it would be a decent/average car that would be competitive. Boy was I wrong.

They should've gone with a DSG or 6sp transmission. Also, even though it has 4 pipes in the back, only 2 are really active. People have been complaining about that too. And what a stupid pattern it is in the back. Man it looks stupid.

I saw it at the NY auto show, and I thought the IS350 was a MUCH sexier looking car, with just as good performance. (relatively)

The IS350 looks like ass in my opinion.

If you are talking about a mighty fine ass on a mighty fine woman. I agree.

For me to poop on.

Of course, they look quite identical to normal IS if you don't put attention, but that's same for M3 or C63 AMG anyway. Anyway, IS-F looked really awesome, maybe because I am a guy who likes newer design trend? (ie. new 3 series, L-finess, new Accord, etc)

Oh, engine and exhaust sound were great also. Toyota/Lexus somehow managed it sounds not-like other Toyota/Lexus Cheer for them :beer:

But performance-wise, it's obviously failed one I'd say.

Are you Korean?

Ouch, you got that.

Oh it's cool, I wasn't meaning anything derogatory, just saw the 'Dae' in your name and was curious.

The beep is a good idea until you implement it... test it... and say to yourself it's bloody annoying.

Ever design something on paper and change your mind like that? This was obviously never tested by the designer/engineers... it couldn't possibly have been.

With that said though, if that's all there is to bitch about, then it's a good vehicle... fifth gear definitely liked it for what it was.

i doubt it's failed performance wise. the beeping is annoying and that's the point of the clip. if they're smart, im sure they'll fix that in later releases or updates.

It appears to also have understeer/oversteer issues. We'll have to wait for more in-depth testing to know for sure though.
