Lexus will be taking on two of its most coveted rivals, Mercedes’ C63 and the BMW M3, with its all new IS-F performance sedan. This latest video shows the car going through some high-speed antics down at the Laguna Seca speedway, and, by the looks of things, IS-F owners will have nothing to worry about up against the more established German muscle cars. Click here to read our previous story on the IS-F or click ahead for the video.

Optional traction!
HOLY SHIT!!!! I want this car!!!! Forget BMW and Mercedes, I’m definitely buying this car when I’m done university.
The engineering behind is wonderful, and it can clearly drive, but it still looks like a shinier Camry.
Lexus sports car sounds like elephant flying
Really??? Then that is one fast, loud and powerful elephant.
Forget about BMW and Mercedes? How can anyone make any conclusion, they don’t even show it going head to head with the C63 or M3. The C63 tramples this car in both hp and torque. I believe Car and Driver got the C63 down to 0-60 in 3.9 seconds. It will probably handle better, as it handles more on par with the M3 now. The M3 was not about speed only, but handling too.
