    3rd Generation Lexus GX (GX 550, GX 550h) Megathread

    For sure, that was definitely a stretch. Toyota paid BMW to test the GR Supra on the roads with other BMW models (as well as Minis and Rolls Royces) and for BMW to send data back to Japan. Toyota would then ask BMW to make changes to the car while they were cold and stress testing the cars. So...

    2024 Lexus TX (350, 500h, 550h+) Megathread

    I saw a TX500h F-Sport Performance and while the rest of the car is handsome, the front is butt-ugly.

    3rd Generation Lexus GX (GX 550, GX 550h) Megathread

    Hm... given how we had a handful of engineers/insiders from Japan/Europe saying otherwise, I wonder who these individuals were that said this? I mean at this point the car is out for a couple of years, people who are butt-hurt about it will still remain butt-hurt about the B58. In terms of...

    3rd Generation Lexus GX (GX 550, GX 550h) Megathread

    To be fair Toyota did a lot of work in terms of giving engineering feedback to BMW and Toyota ended up making their own tweaks to the engine. The end product was quite significant in terms of how special the engine was. As for the GR Supra itself, well, it doesn't drive all that similar to the...

    3rd Generation Lexus GX (GX 550, GX 550h) Megathread

    Nostalgia for the Supra is a helluva drug my guy.

    3rd Generation Lexus GX (GX 550, GX 550h) Megathread

    I'm not holding my breath for Lexus to be doing a lot of work on F in the near future to be honest. Bring the hybrid and up the power of the GX by the mid-life refresh and this car will remain competitive. The GX is an excellent product.

    2025 Mercedes-Benz GELÄNDEWAGEN 550 and G 63

    Very true, and I agree with you. My point is just that a lot of the G550 guys probably won't be off-roading or doing anything remotely relating to performance. It should be a good sell.

    2025 Mercedes-Benz GELÄNDEWAGEN 550 and G 63

    Inline-six. Huge difference. A smooth inline-six would be perfect for the mall-crawler levels.

    2025 Mercedes-Benz GELÄNDEWAGEN 550 and G 63

    The true flagship for Mercedes-Benz.

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    I was at an auto show two days ago and I was speaking to the Lexus marketing guys and they mentioned that the LX should have some upgrades for the 2025 model year (pano sunroof, some upgrades to the chassis, and a more spruced up interior. I'm not sure how true this is though. As for the...

    LEXUS INTRODUCES THE NEXT EVOLUTION OF THE LEXUS LUXURY YACHT, LY680

    ??????????? This is news to me.

    4th Generation Lexus LX (LX 600, LX 700h) Megathread

    I like what everyone is saying here and I do hope the SUVs get revised and we get (perhaps two?) new ones to cover different segments, but let's just stop for a few seconds and realize that Lexus has basically become a SUV company at this point. Where this effort for the IS? ES? LS? RC? LC? GS...

    12th Generation E120 Toyota Corolla Thread (Hatch, Sedan, Cross, GR)

    Very fair review of the car. It's an insane little rocket, but Toyota has a lot of improving to do in terms of beefing the car up further to take more abuse.

    They gave the Defender 110 a 9/10 but the GX and X5 an 8/10. Figures...

    16th Generation Toyota Crown (Sedan, Cross, Sport, Estate/Signia)

    0-100 in 5.1 seconds is pretty good. Now watch the times tumble by a tenth or two once Toyota brings launch control to this car.

    2025 INFINITI QX80

    I'm happy we are actively rooting for Infiniti to give Lexus a good ass-whooping. As not only that will help Infiniti, but will encourage Lexus to do better as well. Mind you, the LX is an excellent product, but it can do so much better.
