New Lexus LS....whoal_eclipse_l 10-16-2006, 10:30 PM http://www.lexus.com/models/LS/features/performance.html check that shit out, and take notice to the drivetrain... Thor06 10-16-2006, 10:44 PM :eek7: Daaaaaammn. There is way too much engineering in that vehicle. And I love it. But seriously, a 8 spd auto? Thats one thing I would change. I also think they could have gotten more power than 380 out of a 4.3l, but shit. That is an amazing piece of automobile. Blackcrow64 10-16-2006, 10:57 PM Dad was lookin at that thing... I think he should get it cause the old buick is on its last leg... NateS 10-17-2006, 09:42 PM Wow 8 speed... wierddd. BTW it is a 4.6L not a 4.3L. defiancy 10-17-2006, 09:58 PM Pretty bad ass considering Ford has a 4.6 in the stang and it only pushes out 300-320hp. Shpyder 10-17-2006, 10:37 PM Lexus is now upping the ante; see how most of their line-up is now RWD and AWD? That's awesome. Pretty soon you'll see them knocking head-to-head with the Germans. Honestly, you go sit all the new Lexuses and Acuras and Infinities, and then the German group, there's no noticeable difference in quality; it's all in the head and ego. Granted, the top dog M power and AMG are still up there, but I expect the Japanese to eventually come out with their own crazy-fast models. I think they're playing it safe by refraining, and focusing on grasping the market by the balls, which they are successfully doing right now: notice how Benz has been "forced" to diversify their once-exclusive lineup with a minivan now, lmao. The fact is, with the same amount of luxury and power, and then reliability (which Germans cars do NOT have...I have over 20 NEW Benzes and Bimmers in my family that have all wierd stuff going wrong with them: all electrical issues that are a pain in the ass), the Japanese may eventually win the game. Some diehard German fans will never approve, but no one can argue that the Japanese will have them by the tail pretty soon, by the way things are going... NOFX0617 10-18-2006, 01:58 AM The new LS is SICK!!!! I really like the cruise control feature that slows your car down if you are coming up on a car in front of you too fast.....but the best feature is that it parks itself....yeah you read that right...it parks itself...CRAZY!!! BLU CIVIC 10-18-2006, 08:01 AM this car is plain on the outside...especially from the side and the rear looks like a BMW...looks wise, they could have done more scottsee 10-18-2006, 12:06 PM I was flipping through some inport mag at Barns & Nobel yesterday. Lexus is comming out with a new sports car LF-A, bas ass.. http://www.lexus.com/fcv/lf_a.html BLU CIVIC 10-18-2006, 12:09 PM the LF-Sh looks just like a BMW Thor06 10-18-2006, 12:45 PM High end sports cars FTL. I like to be able to work on my own cars. Sure all that would be great, but you'd never be able to do any of your own work plus with all that extra fancy shit, theres a lot that could go wrong. NOFX0617 10-19-2006, 09:23 PM I have found a video of the self parking...pretty sweet.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lc6U7JTkMXw BLU CIVIC 10-20-2006, 08:03 AM High end sports cars FTL.
