Wow - M3 Sedan starts at the back and shows the C63 and IS-F up...C63 clearly is quicker down the straights, but the M3 wins due to its superior cornering speeds...nice drift at the end...
IS-F was very twitchy... |

M3 left the pack for dead as soon as it got out front. Looks like the IS-F handles better that the C63, but loses on motor.

It looked to me like both the M3 and C63 were able to walk the IS-F on the straights but the C63 couldn't keep its hind quarters planted in the turns, which is where the M3 ate its lunch. Of course, on the Lexus forums they claim the IS-F's 3rd place showing was all due to "driver error".

That's pretty funny. But we have seen the ISF suffer this exact same fate in other Japanese video comparison races. But then, these guys are laughing and horsing around as they are doing this--some of the sliding around seems intentional, and I am not talking about the M3 drifting to the finish in this one--so I don't know that I'd take these as accurate tests either.

Having finally driven all three cars I would have to day that the IS-F will be most comfortable for day to day driving (my opinion of course) It was definitely the most comfortable to sit in.

Thanks Fusion, enjoyed the vid and wish I knew what they are saying. M3 Sedan pulled off a good lead by the end. Nice.

The M3 driver always looked good, smooth, almost boring
IS-F was trying to recover in most of the turns C63 sounded and looked just crazy all around Nissan, no comment
