Somehow, Mondays and depressing Lexus videos seem to go hand & hand — last week, it was watching an IS F being crushed, and this week it’s an unfortunate parking job that results in an ES 300 taking a river bath.
To counteract the travesty of the last video, here’s something from the opposite end of the emotional spectrum — a Lexus IS 350C with cartoon robot arms and a remote-control helicopter mounted to the roof.
Here’s an interesting review of the 2011 Lexus RX 450h in the Pekin Daily Times by Silvio Calabi, who uses the crossover to haul stone and transport garbage to the dump before finally coming to understand the reasons for the vehicle’s success.
Inspired by MythBusters, Lexus Magazine auto editor Clark Heideger attempts to calculate the efficiency of the Lexus LS 600hL's four-zone climate control using a series of (not-so) scientific experiments involving improper thermometers, ice cream and his own internal "sensors".
Now that the second-generation Lexus SC 430 sales have finally stopped, buying used is the only way to get your hands on one -- which is something that British website Pistonheads strongly recommends with their hilarious review of the 2001-2010 model.
This weekend is the Lexus CT 200h Celebrity Challenge in Australia, and the Sydney Morning Herald has put together a pretty funny sneak peek of what to expect from the celebrity race. (If one of the drivers gets his way, it will be a real-world version of bumper cars.) Watch the video @ SMH
Here’s a series of commercials from Lexus Italy that feature Doctor Tokokira, a scientist that has just created a shrinking ray, The Minimizer. Along with his lovely yet awkward assistant, Tokokira tries various applications of his new invention — believe me, it’s worth watching even if you don’t speak Italian (or Japanese): I won’t spoil …
Here’s a little video of the Lexus LF-Ch puttering its way across a parking lot: Not a lot of pep in the concept car—which reminded me of some photos I forgot to post from the Detroit Auto Show : I have a feeling the engine in the production model will be a little more advanced …
Here’s two Lexus HS 250h commercials—the first is from Japan, and involves saving the world: This second commercial shows the HSh’s Heads-up Display in greater detail: The HUD isn’t available in the HSh in Canada, so this is the first time I’ve seen the upgraded graphics and display information. Very impressed to see the steering …
The minute I saw that Jalopnik Jonny Lieberman had gotten his mitts on an LS 600hL for a week, I knew we were in for a treat, and I was not disappointed in the least: Why am I laughing like such an idiot? Seriously, my cheeks hurt from grinning. Well, the reason why is that …
Spanning two parts, the Jalopnik review of the Lexus IS-F is a real fun read, but the most interesting aspect is how contrary it is to other published reviews.
