Infiniti is junk.

Mike Zita says:

GERMAN CARS ARE THE BEST GUYS!

Thats why within 5 years your 60k car drops to 50% of its value and you end
up spending a shit load on maintenance costs

It’s all worth it cause its German engineered right? Pay for premium
engineering ..but you still end up in the dealership like a jackass paying
a shit load for maintenance compared to a car engineered by an
‘inferior’ manufacturer which visits the mechanic less frequently. Makes
sense.

Fucking Germans manufactures are like the Abercombie of luxury vehicles.
Fuck off with you pretentiousness. The Japs have been making better cars
for decades.

Bro Dude64Gaming says:

this was the worst head to head episode ever because you made fun of the
lexus is. did you know that infiniti is the worst car selling brand in the
world because of the look of the front end. the Q50 looks like my shit.

Bamavol89 says:

man for the price tested I’d rather just go buy an Audi s4. Way better than
both of these cars

Fadic4 says:

Are you fucking kidding me? The Lexus looks amazing 

Damien Hebert says:

The Lexus is beautiful! What are y’all talkin about?

Danny Nunez says:

This guy is either paid by infinity Or he’s a dumbass… I think both tho..

William T. says:

the lexus will also last longer (reliable) and holds a better resale value
than the infiniti if you put that into consideration

gliadcom says:

Lexus is still an appliance, like all other toyotas – moving ass from A to
B. Infiniti is clearly a lot of fun either driving daily or race it on a
track.

Sal C says:

I dig the Lexus front end. The Infiniti front looks cheap to me.

Alex Espinoza says:

Infiniti cars are winning me over. Anyone know about the 2014 G Sedan?
Really looking forward to that or will they change the name or something…

Ko300ko Koo says:

Q50s win

Austin Green says:

And here come the people who think they know shit about cars…

Bradley Price says:

I really do like the Lexus brand but they have got to downsize on the grill
it sorta reminds me of when Acura had that giant beak like grill on its
2009 Acura TL that was major turn off!

RazorFX says:

What if the steering column starts to malfunction while driving lol.

Minka Kelly says:

Lexus IS probably has the most talked about re-style ever.

Alex says:

The Q50 performs better at all levels, yet the winner is… the IS. LOL.
Dumb review. That’s all I can say.

ellieisfit15 says:

Infinity is shit, thay car looks dull and boring and it understeers more.
The Lexus however looks far better more lively

Michael O'Connell says:

Figures the ugly duckling finds the gorgeous IS to be “ugly”… That
infinity looks boring, and plain, so much so that it’s actually a crime you
didn’t just buy a Nissan. 

phenomXam says:

Are you kidding me? The Lexus looks sexy all around.

EpochOfReason1 says:

This review is ridiculous! The Infiniti was clearly superior in every
single way, yet the reason why the horrifically styled Lexus won was
because the Q50 is too firm? What biased crap! Tell you what,here’s a
recipe for one of the best Sedans you’ll ever drive……. Take one 2014
Q50S Hybrid, add a free-flowing exhaust from the headers, install a Garret
turbo at 10PSI and sit it on an Accuair 4 point suspension system……. M5
killer. Infiniti is awesome!

Northern Stars says:

Did this yuppie with the disgusting swamp beard just say the IS350 is
ugly?? I’ve seen more than a couple and car looks sick especially in black.
This idiot shouldn’t be reviewing cars probably drives a Volkswagen Beetle.
Please get rid of this creep.

Tino Miller says:

I would perfer the Lexus .. The grill looks cool and if it has the interior
like the LFA then its worth my money .. The base price and as is price is
not bad and I would also get a better resale value for the car .. Did I
mention since its the luxury brand from Toyota that really tells me this
car is durable and will last longer ..

MustafaGT says:

Are you fucking serious???????? How can you say that BMW wannabe infinity
is way better looking than the lexus????? I guess it must be an ugly thing.
Ugly faggots like you only like what resembles to them. And please, take
that ring off, we all know its a fucking cover up. 

5uPAn0Va says:

Not being racist or stereotypical, but I am going to give my opinion. Looks
are subjective, and just as you Americans like Chargers and Challengers,
which are ugly to pretty much the rest of the world, we love cars like the
Lexus IS. You may be shocked, but as mentioned above, I can say the same
thing.

asmin Bw says:

Lexus absolutely better

Austin Green says:

Man lexus needs to change that ugly ass design, maybe they should go back
to the older body style

dmc0053 says:

So the slower car that understeers wins the sports sedan head to head. Huh.

senorgato70 says:

Agree that the IS is not attractive and it is no better in person. The
side panels and greenhouse line is so dull, then you have the
overly-designed front and rear – like a librarian with bobby pins in her
hear trying to wear fishnets with stilettos. The Q is better but that
C-pillar just looks desperate to be unique and I strongly dislike the Q
interior. And, frankly, both cars lag behind the 3 and S4 significantly in
performance. 

bashy85 says:

Neither car wins, they both suck in comparison to the Germans.

Adrian B says:

4:41 that’s probably what she said lol

tommy Lapadura says:

Someone in this thread that American car suck and always break down! Henry
ford is/was an American! American car have come lengths and bounds these
days and it’s hard to compete with today’s horse power and style with these
two cars! How could anyone compare apples with oranges! I’ll keep my
American made and Italian made vehicles any day!!

william spooner says:

this dude is funny!!!!

rrpostalagain says:

I don’t like the new Lexus “brand ” look on their grill. It’s too jagged
and plastic… or something? I certainly identify them immediately. But not
a good kind of recognition.

Mr Ol Skül says:

Fifty more hp is always nice, but I’d rather Lexus put the car on a diet
and best the first gen IS350s 0-60 time of 4.9 seconds.
Colin Chapman had it right, add lightness.
Then, everything works better.

I can recall when Japanese cars were light and everyone made fun of the
bloated American cars of the 70s. Guess what?, modern cars are now heavier
than those very cars that were the butt of every joke. I think it’s
ludicrous that a Corolla (as most others in its class) weighs 1.5 tons.

I don’t need power seats and blind spot monitors and so on, and so forth,
to make my car heavier. I “learned” how to drive a car several decades ago
and can tell you that I’ve yet to need those nannies and the downside they
bring bring with them (i.e. weight and complexity).

Obai says:

lexus fans disliked the video :D

trilingualkid says:

That lexus front is pretty damn ugly…

F-Series says:

Wtf u serious? Lexus looks better than Infiniti 

Carl K says:

infiniti is still a nissan and nissan is a POS. I mean your nissian will
rust within 5 years. Infinitis have terrible exhaust noise. sounds like an
old man farting. that is why ladies and gentleman infinitis are the
cheapest luxury cars. 

sillymoons oo says:

The Lexus looks ugly.. The Infiniti looks like a true gentleman car, not a
wannabe futuristic car. Thats just my opinion. 

Nima Ataei says:

I think the IS looks damn good. The Infiniti’s tail end looks like a KIA.

omar mohammed says:

That infiniti is soo sexy 

JetlinerX says:

That steer by wire shit sounds SO SCARY. I want my steering connected to
my wheels, please…

TEDdotcom says:

Lexus looks better than that Infiniti, which tries to copy the corporate
front grill of the Lexus.

razorwings says:

ah, the IS look is SO polarizing. I think it’s one of the best looking cars
out there. The Q50 rubs me different ways from different angles. cant put
my finger on it. 

Terra Pirata says:

Lexus is350 = Camry with leather and Nike logos on the bumper.
