According to Lexus it's because of safety issues when all the nannies are turned off. But every comparison IS has lost to the 3-series until now was because VDIM couldn't be shut off.
I have actually only seen one where Lexus has won:

The verdict was that Lexus was very good doing everything while the 3-series is awesome at one - driving feel.
All other comparisons reach the same result bu lets the 3-series win exactly because of this.
