    Introducing the Lexus IS 500 Launch Edition

    If Lexus pricing is compelling, it's a no brainer - USB with black interior for me! A real good appetizer until that rumoured 4.0V8TT... Starting prices for reference (all in CAD), MB C43 AMG ~$72k, BMW M340i xDrive ~$63k, Audi S4 ~$61k. You gain the V8, but you lose the AWD (not an issue for...

    Ask the Experts: Lexus Wants Your Questions about the 2020 RC F Coupe

    With the inclusion of pricey racing bits like carbon ceramic brakes, the decision to go with a max performance road tire (bespoke PS4S) and not a street legal, more track appropriate tire (ex. sport cup 2) is curious. What is the rationale here? Alex Toronto

    Official 5th Generation GS Thread: Returning with Hydrogen Power?

    You're right, 400 lbs is wishful thinking for the current car. I was presenting a hypothetical. 2-400 lbs lighter should be a target for the next-gen car however. If memory serves correct, the GT and GT3 cars shed about 800 and 1000 lbs respectively from the production RC-F. Luxury bits are...

It appears Team GR...

    ... new car needs to be lighter to achieve the playful feel GR is aiming for... ... cars have to run faster, and that tuning is already (in place)... Exciting because it sounds like they understand precisely what is "wrong" with current F cars - weight (RC-F) and power (GS-F).

    This Week: Driving the All New 2018 Lexus LS Flagship

    My sales guy gave me a shout this morning with news that they're taking delivery of their first LS hybrid today. It looks stunning in person and a lot smaller than I anticipated.

    The car is stunning! Wish I could make a quick trip to NYIAS to see it in person. I remember seeing the LF-LC concept in person for the first time and being blown away. I can't wait to see the F variant and find out what will be powering it! :D

    Lexus Introduces LC 500 Flagship Coupe at Detroit Auto Show

    We got a passionate bunch here lol. Let me clarify - I was expecting something similar to the concept, we got something similar to the concept. Despite expecting what was unveiled, I was still impressed (left in awe really). We need to spend more time on that drop dead gorgeous interior...
