Happy New Year From Lexus Enthusiast

Kevin December 31st, 2012

Happy New Year

As 2012 draws to a close and I recover from a nasty bout with the flu, I would like to wish everyone a safe and happy New Year.

With the introduction of a new or refreshed Lexus model every couple months, there was rarely a dull moment this year — 2012 was a great ride, and I was thrilled to share it with my readers.

(I did write an article on the Top Ten Lexus Stories of 2012, and it should be published by Lexus Magazine this week.)

Let me say this about the new year — it’s going to start off strong with the debut of the next-generation IS sedan in Detroit, and I have some exciting developments of my own that I’ll be announcing in short order.

Most of all, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my readers — the support over the years has been astounding, and you are the reason this website exists. Thank you for everything.

All of my very best,

Kevin Watts
