As the holidays draw closer, more details are leaking out about the upcoming announcement at the Detroit Auto Show, of the new Lexus IS-F and the 'F' strategy.
Sources tell the Spies the IS-F will have a modified front end similar to the Lexus GT Supercar.
We also hear it will have close to 400HP and become a true challenger to the next BMW M3, for the first time in history.
The new Lexus series will square off against rivals like the BMW M3, Audi RS4 and upcoming Mercedes CL63.
This is poised to REALLY heat up over the next couple years and it will be intersting to see how the cards fall and who will have the ultimate bragging rights.
Anyone care to make some predictions since we're close to the new year?
The Spies think they have figured out what the 'F' means...F'en trouble for all of their competitors!
