Deriving its name from Toyota's original code for the Lexus brand, the new IS-F harnesses 416 horsepower and reports a 4.6 0-60.
Motor Trend has the first look....the Lexus team unveiled their new black sheep at Laguna Seca racetrack. There, it took about, oh, two or three turns to realize the Nrburgring-tuned IS F is going to make serious trouble for the likes of the new BMW M3, the Audi RS4, and the Mercedes C63 AMG. The car is, quite simply, a monster: Acceleration is brutal, the brakes are wicked-strong, and handling grip is immense
Perhaps the F stands for Fire-breather. Or maybe Lexus is secretly dropping the F-bomb on BMW.
