Hmmm. Maybe he's trying to tell us something. But if that's true, instead of driving an Accord, wouldn't he be in a Miata or a Mini?

You see, Dom, this is an example of the alternative, i.e. literal, usage of the "stupid" smile.

boring
Over the past 10 years I have leased two lexus models, the Gs300 and the big luxury model. I loved the cars when I leased them and could not wait to get rid of them at the end of the lease. The Lexus driving experience is boring . The cars are competent and well made but the driver is insulated from the driving experience . The cars felt dead to me. Competent but dead.Lexus is for people who don't like to drive.
I had the big Lexus first. I leased the GS 300 in the hope that it would be more sporty. It was the same. Dull.

Lexus IS 300
I bet you Toyota gets it right next time. The IS 300 has three serious drawbacks:
1. Size. It is a tad too small.
2. Gas mileage. Ugh!!
3. Price. Not a value like the TSX.
In the next model year, they'll offer a larger car with better gas mileage, but not at a good price. Why? 'cause Toyota never learns with prices.
In the meantime, GO TSX!!!!

Anyways, I don't think IS is a fast car. It is a FUN car to drive though. For me, I will replace the shocks. It's just a tad too soft.
However, as much as people hate BMW 3-series here, still, a 330i with sport pkg is faster than an IS300 even if it doesn't feel like it is (proven in autocross).
