Montréal Auto Show: Lexus

The first in a series of high-performance models for the Lexus division, the IS F is a more-aggressive version of the compact IS sedan, and a competitor for the BMW M3, the Audi S4/RS 4, the Cadillac CTS-V and the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG. The IS F rips pavement with its 5.0-liter V8 that generates 416 horsepower and 371 lb-ft of torque, mated to an 8-speed automatic.
