I work with both cars in the cosmetic paint sector. I am certified in BMW and Lexus. If I was given either or if I had to buy either, I would choose Lexus 99 out of 100 times. Their quality, craftsmanship is unmatched by any other car maker on the planet.
Lexus is a division of Toyota and the IS did originally come from the Corolla...but the new IS is her own breed of car w/ no sister car on the Toyota side. I haven't looked into the IS too much but have looked at the IS300. I was a die hard GS fan till this new model IS came out. Reminds me of a baby GS.
BMW use to be known to live in the shop...they have gotten better...but you will still see at least twice as much shop time as you would with any Lexus.

Although BMW seems as though they may be a little classier, the maintance is very expensive. Like oil changes that would cost a Lexus like 20-30 may cost a BMW 60-80. Parts are also a lot more expensive on BMWs than Lexus. Lexus's are great reliable cars and if you are saving money for the long run that is what I suggest.

Definately Lexus, it is about owning a product that is built to the ultimate refinement. Plus the design of the Lexus is much more innovative and classy.
Lexus always put the competion on a search for new ideas. I am quite sure that in the long run the Lexus will be a much better choice, and further the drive will be much more rewarding.

I was at this point a couple of months ago...BMW 3 series or Lexus IS 300...I ended up getting the Lexus b/c one, its a Toyota which is one of the most reliable cars out there. And Lexus is more rare, you see BMWs everywhere!!!
