Not sure if I like the exterior, but the interior is nice?  |

I think the side panels are too plane and flat, need some more details.
and the waist line is too high, I know it is the trend, but I perfer cars that are actually lower rather than haveing high waist line that makes them look low

yes...haha FR3D...i already mentioned this new IS from the "old" forum...
anyways....i really like the way they styled it......except the headlights
i like the fact that they get rid of that "low head, high ass" style......and im not so sure that i liked the Altezza lights either..
bold styling has made it more elegant IMO
with the fact that a 2.5 V6 is coming...that should save some gas money. lol...ah well
but it's a V6, not I6...i wonder wut happens to the 300hp version...still the inline or the V...hmm
interior wise.. it look pretty good... like absinthe said..
but the chrono-gauge.....hmm.. not that i dun like it (neutral)... but i didn't like the way the tachometer was so small (in comparison)...

i forgot to add that ... yeah it's the trend that the waist line is getting high...but none will be as high as the Matrix. lol... IMHO i just think that if it makes u feel like sitting lower, u feel like driving a sports car...  |

well yeah of corz actual sports cars are better......
but if u hv to compromise the everyday driving and transporting ur family as well...
these sports sedan is the way to go.........and i must say....they are well designed
one thing i dun like about sports car is that.....u then become the obvious for police to take notice of u........and i hate that (since i like driving fast, but hate to be noticed by cops so easily)

I like it I think it's hawt, especially the interior. The IS should give the Acura TL a run for it's money. One thing I can see is that it had a bit of the GS in it.
I think the IS's competition should come from the TSX instead of the TL |

but TSX is kindda in it's own class for its price range
I think IS was always targeted to share the 3-series, c-class and A4 market

front of TSX and TL look similar too
TL doesn't seem as 'sporty' as GS though......LS more luxury

sure... TL and TSX front very similar...with TL's projector actually smaller GS is RWD man...of corz way more sportier.....the feeling of being pushed and being pulled makes a hell lot of differences |

MBenz is no exception
