Well i do believe my BMW is great looking and stylish but in black or gray the IS-F looks quite menacing..lighter colors bring out the unfortunate bulges but not really worried about the looks as its the engine that i crave. With the economy like it is, i pretty sure i can get a great deal for it as well. I also wanted to drive the S5 but dealer had no idea when they would be in..both Audi-S5 and MB-C63 dealers said i could order one for Oct build and have a car in Dec. To impatient for that..may need a V8 by labor day. So now i need to get with my wife and come up with the justification to give up a car we bought 16 mos ago. Wish me luck!!
Cheers.

"Edmunds tested a preproduction model and made a misleading conclusion.
There is no IS-F "fake exhaust" on the real models."

it's not a picture... but will it do?

Everyone knows on the intrawebs... its pics or it didn't happen.

That being said, the picture posted earlier that was supposed to prove that the exhaust tips were connected... didn't. If you look closely enough at picture number 2, you can see the top of the bottum tip through the top hole. Its the exact same design and model as the picture with the hand in between. Just look at it for a second, you can clearly see that they are not hooked up in either picture.

I CALL SHENANIGANS ON THIS CAR'S EXHAUST!

Picture 1 "Pre-Prodction"


Picture 2 "Post-Production..?"


i see no change other than lighting.

I am pretty much in the same boat as you, but i will be getting rid of the ML for one of the three. Overall the IS-F is winning interms of dealership and cost. Both my local dealer MB and BMW kept on giving the same line "this the hottest car right now" so they arent discounting them but with the IS-F from the # we came up compare to the other 2(less equipped also) was somewhere around $10K difference. So is the C63 or M3 worth the extra $10K?

talking about the exhaust here is the Ferrari California exhaust
