I think that Lexus is going after the Cadillac CTS-V.

What's up with Lexus and the butt ugly exhausts? I mean its not quite Lexus LF-A concept ugly, but man... just take the easy route if being original is too much for ya...

The rest of the car looks pretty nice though, and the power numbers sound really good. I'm a big fan of the IS350s, just kinda wish they offered AWD like they do with the 250. But honestly, with the price-point they are probably trying to hit with this car, I think you'd be better off looking at an M3. The IS350 gives a good drive but its no 3 Series.

Ive noticed that too, they are more and more starting to look like toyotas, the old ones used to remind me of Benz's.
