What lexus has two sport settings now!! Crazy lol
I wonder if they want the BMW territory now. Cause before when its all about comfort they were the best in and there's a lot of people that like that.
With more sport and harsher rides, compared to their previous models if its true may lose their loyal customers. I dunno if its a great strategy. They should push sport a ltl less as a business perspective.
But for us car lovers if they can get it right we can have reliability with sportiness!

And people who may get annoyed by the sport setting would NOT opted to purchase the F-Sport version.
Lexus isn't that dumb.

I was a bit skeptical of reading all these reviews of head to head comparison between GS and 535i, but after the test drive, it made so much sense.
The new GS is just COMPLETELY different from the previous GS.

gotta stay fucking classy yo
I didn't like the GS at all at first but then it really grew on me when I saw it in a commercial in motion. Looks good, but better inside. They were originally smooth and sporty, looks like they're going back to their roots.
Now it looks awesome imo. The interior is just awesome too. The car drives a lot like BMW now.
You said you got 20x20 right? They didn't offer that, you think 16x16 is too small? I think they had that square one.
I think the Zonda, esp. the Tricolore, just looks more beautiful. I'd take that over any other Pagani, personally.
Just dropped off wife's Avant at the dealer for its service.
I was checking out the A7 Premium Plus with 20 inch sports package and was surprised that it's sticker price is $64k. I always thought this car's pricing was more in line with CLS. It's a pretty sexy looking car. And a huge upside with this car is that the trunk opens up like a wagon. They call this sportsback or something.
And the R8 GT looks

Didn't know where else to post this without making a new thread. Anyone know if something happened to Terry? Haven't seen him post in a while. Hopefully he's just busy working on the restoration.
He sent me a PM saying that he received an email from a non-forum member that was "disturbing" regarding the build. Im not sure what that meant and he didnt go into it - nor was I going to press the issue.
He said he'll reopen it when there is progress

Got the same PM.















That's crazy.
