In terms of sheer entertainment, this clip from Fifth Gear judging the Lexus IS-F and the BMW M3 by how high they get a woman’s heartrate is pure dead brilliant:
A very enjoyable piece (and it’s duly noted that Tiff has to cheat at the end to get the M3 above the IS-F).
Update: Didn’t realize there was two parts to this comparison. Updated to reflect that.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Knowing the number he had to beat was all the advantage.

Lexus IS is still a lot way behind the BMW… Keep on dreaming that IS is faster than M3… Lexus can never do that…

Sorry But the m3 has nothing to look for with the lexus is-f since i ran with one in the street with a frined who has the new m3 and we went to find out who was faster and i think that BMW is paying very well those drivers, because imagine being the leader in sports car manufactoring and then some japanese crazy engineer leaves you in the dust… sorry but that video its pure crap.
