Autocar Rating

If it was Lexus's intention to win the war against the latest BMW 3 series with its sleek new IS, it's a case of closer, but still no cigar. Which isn't to say it doesn't win a few battles. It's more stylish than the Bee Emm inside and out. And it's very slightly more refined. But the small cabin, firm ride and overenthusiastic ESP supply the trip wire.
