Fanboys will be fanboys, ask George Lucas...it wouldn't be good for H/K to trash Toyota as a company because it was because of them that Hyundai Motor emulated to improve their quality. The reason I've paid attention to the company wasn't just that their styling was improved, but because they hired the guy that made the BMW M brand to tune their driving dynamics.Nah, just ignore those commenters, most of them drive Hyundais and Kias and think Toyotas are boring and overpriced junk just because they can get similar features in their H&K typically at a lower price than their competitors, but they totally ignore the fact that H&K cost cut the hell out of the chassis for most of their vehicles to keep their price tags down. No hate to H&K though(Genesis is nice), but they have attracted some really toxic fans, like almost Tesla fanboy level of toxic.
I respect Mark at SG highly however he seems to be more on the negative side/pessimistic. He's one to see the glass half empty whereas I see the glass half full, almost full, pretty much close to full (accountants tend to roundup if it's 50% or more) and as Mikeavelli stated sales are what counts in the end (where products live on or get discontinued). One has to truly understand what the AWD IS 300 is and isn't and most youtubers live in a fantasy land where everything is supposed to beyond perfect in an unperfect world.

And window shoppers have influence over real buyers. Dream of M3, make buy 320d.Car reviews are entertainment for window shoppers.
It’s a lowest common denominator industry.
Nah, they really don’t. What people on YouTube think probably isn’t showing up in consumer surveys about why they buy a car.And window shoppers have influence over real buyers. Dream of M3, make buy 320d.
Wait what?I knew/was certain that teaser/hint was going to be a V35A powered IS. What else could it be?

what's this about a GA-A (TNGA-A) platform? Please share! And where did you hear/read those rumours on the next gen IS? I'm very intrigued and hopeful! We here in Aus lost the IS and I am very much looking forward to a next gen if we ever will get one!Hopefully we could get something like this, v35 ISF with new rumors with next gen IS will be ICE and on new TNGA-A platform. Same with the SEMA LX off road stuff, we need these in dealerships Lexus!
