My daily is a Lexus IS and while it's a good car, it's maybe 60-70% as good a car as the E90 was back in the day. They really aren't even in the same conversation when it comes to anything from powertrain, handling, interior quality, overall solidity, etc.

I've owned it for the past 6 years due to reliability, low cost of ownership, and it being reasonably fun to drive and luxurious; but once my career allows for it I'm going straight back to the Germans.
