Well, here is the thing, after 5 yrs of development, this thing will be bullet proof, unlike the some of the above mentioned cars. The times qouted, are very conservative. Everybody who has driven it loves it. Plus, for 500 examples of a car that is "halo" car for Lexus-whose name is synonomous for luxury and reliability.
 I agree that it doesn't look as pretty as the concept that is was bsed on. But the SLR ain't pretty either.
Besides, this engine will show up in the next Lotus Esprit (along with the Lexus GS-F)...so I guess Lotus doesn't think it's shit.

The SLS, is damn good looking, the SLR lools better in black, but it's nose is to long. The final version, the SLR Sterling Moss, now that care is beautiful. The long nose is incorporated well.

You haven't seen the CTS-V interior. And the M5 interior has been criticized by many british magazines and websites as being too stark and bleak, not to mention that the SMG is jerky (it is around town), and the Audi interior is better

The CTS-V coupe is coming out, and it will be nice as well. I like the M3's and m5's and M6's, but I gotta give respect to the Home team...because they were the ones who invented the Muscle car, the Cool Car. Nothing cooler than a 67- 68 Mustang all black, or a black 69 Camaro.

One of the guys at the dealership who is friends with Hank Haney ( he frequents the BMW dealership here quite often) has the ZR-1, Gallardo with twin turbo, and CTS-V as his new toys, and I took a ride in the CTS-V and the build quality is outstanding, on par with everything BMW has to offer, but not quite Lexus like imo.

I know you're a car nut and know what you're talking about, and I've been in and driven many many cars ( GT3's, M3's, RX7's, Supras, GT500's, Z06's, numerous AMG's, RS4, S4's, IS-f, etc.....)  and can tell you that the new american cars are much better than it use to be. It's just that they are coming out at the wrong time.

I never understand why people are TWin Turbo charging Gallardos, Murci's, Ford GT's, they give them over 1000 hp, but they don't have wider rubber. So their HP is far greater than the grip they get...it makes no sense. The Veyron has 365 section tires, that are specially made for it---one would think if you are making more HP than a Bugatti Veyron in a AWD car, then you need wider rubber than it as well...

Would honestly rather drive the Lexus IS-F and pocket the extra cash. Some of these supercars border on the whole "look at me" factor too much for my liking although their performance stats are awesome.

RE: Euro cars being overrated...to some degree this is absolutely true. When the German stuff runs properly it is great but I am sorry the reason that BMW, MB and Audi used prices plummet compared to the Japanese competition is because once the 3 year warranties are up on the Euro cars they are more prone to nickel and diming their owners with endless repair bills.  All cars need normal maintenance but the sh*t I have seen go wrong on fairly late model German luxury makes is unacceptable and costly.

Looks wise 300k for that is f'n retarded.  To me it looks like it would fit in next to supra, mustang, tib, genesis, mazda rx, and that bmw roadster.  For that much money it should stand out like a ferrari or lambo.  I'm sure it's a bad ass car, and fun as hell to drive, but I'm just blown away that that is going to be the price when i look at it.  I guess if you have that kind of money to piss away on a car though it doesn't really matter

I agree, the 335i is pretty much the standard

You need a car to pull pussy? When buying a car I don't think of that, it's for my enjoyment...what I say out my mouth pulls the p. Most women are pushing the car that stated, so to them if one is driving a Bmw he is either a douche (BMW drivers world wide have that rep) or if it is the cabrio, he's driving his wife's or daughters car.

Cabrios for sports cars are well known for being heavier because of the structural strengthening needed because of  the loss of top. Unless you are driving the SLR Stirling Moss, most of those cars way heavier than their coupe counterparts. And folding hardtops are even more heavier. Guess who the new Ferrari California is geared to? Women, the same women who buy the SL and jag xk convert.

Now there are exceptions to the rule I stated, Ferrari and Lamborghini, well because they are Ferrari and Lamborghini, any model coupe or convert will pull pusst, because they smell money

well, i like the cabrio... maybe its just me... or here in south america the convertibles are mostly driven by men.. and for example you get the 335i convertible and you are the man.. i had the 328i coupe and its a nice car.. but the cabrio is way better... at least in my opinion...

hahaha, BMW's aren't the cars to pull girls, if you intend to do that, then I suggest Ferraris, Lambos, Maseratis, Bentley's, anything that is highly exotic/supercars. These days anyone can get BMW's, Mercedes, it's nothing special.

hahaha, BMW's aren't the cars to pull girls, if you intend to do that, then I suggest Ferraris, Lambos, Maseratis, Bentley's, anything that is highly exotic/supercars. These days anyone can get BMW's, Mercedes, it's nothing special.

Parker, I remember you said you drive a IS300. Why don't you trade that in for a IS-F or IS350 :)

I FUCKING LIVE IN SOUTH AMERICA; HERE HAVING A BIMMER IS THE SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT hahaha

Bob Lutz threw down the gauntlet that no 4 door production sedan can beat the Cadillac CTS-V on the 'Ring...It currently has the the record for 4 door production sedans...There are no takers...

The Viper SRT10 production  currently has the a ring time of 7.22 secs...  
So, you were saying about American cars again?

From Evo Magazine:

Porsche’s Panamera may not float everyone’s boat, but you can’t argue that it’s fast. The brand’s first ever saloon has done its obligatory laps of the Nürburgring, and in Turbo form at least, has walked away with the four-door record.

It lapped the Nordschleife – fast becoming the performance car
litmus test – in 7 minutes 56 seconds, making it three seconds quicker than the previous record holder, the Cadillac CTS-V (pictured, grey). The four-wheel-drive Porsche is someway short of the Caddy in the power stakes, its 4.8-litre V8 engine offering up 493bhp and 516lb ft compared to the rear-driven CTS-V’s 550bhp and 551lb ft.

The Panamera’s time is equal to that of its Porsche 911 Turbo
stable mate as well as the Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale and is a whole 17 seconds quicker than the E60 BMW M5.

If you want to read our driving impressions of the Porsche Panamera Turbo, then grab a copy of Issue 134 of evo – on sale Wednesday July 22

From an aethetic perspective that Lexus is a mess from the front, and not to great from any other angle.

Yep, of course, this is getbig. Besides I never claimed owning any supercars or exotics ;)
