(as a lease not a buy) BMW gives service included. Any good points why to stay with the Lexus if the BMW came out with a super car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The IS350 is plenty fast for most of us with some guys doing 13.3 to 13.6 in the quater mile STOCK! If your main criteria for a car purchase is a 6 speed manual, connected to the road handling and BMW free initial service, then buy the 335i. However, there has already been one 335i with a blown engine with less than 400 miles on it. First BMW twin turbo motor in God knows how long, in a first gen release,...get where I'm coming from?! Lexus forcuses on driver comfort, style and reliability for the day to day driver. So, go out and driver both cars in the situation you will be using it and choose for yourself.
