Lexus sounds like the name of a women's shampoo.

I'll take a Porsche from any decade.

You say that the IS-F will burn down these chick cars? But the thing is IS-F isn't even a coupe and Lexus doesn't even have a sports car to compete with these two. The only thing 'girly' that I know is the Lexus SC which handles like it's rolling on loafs of bread. Sluggish.

You obviously haven't driven any of these performance cars. IS-F is in no league with a 911 or an SL 55. SC is far from that already.

and Lexites? so that's what you call your fellow Lexus fans? Sound like a bunch of bacteria.

I hate it when they make up random equations in car reviews. This review was equation overkill.

11.6 is the same as the turbo tip, 11.7 with the manual. So straight line the same , but on the track the turbo would kill it

Depends what you want. Luxury with lots of horse power or pure sports car.

both phenomenal cars.
the 911 is definitely harder edged.
SL is certaily more lux....plus who doesn't love a hot drop top.

i'll take one of each please.

Must have been a Lexus fan jealous that we didn't give Lexus props for their ever so beautiful and sluggish SC430. It's a sad story, I know I know...

The RS4 will kill both of these cars, and I don't want to talk about how the R8 will do to them.

"AudiKing" The turbo Porsche outperforms the RS4 hands down, in fact it out performs the R8 as well.
