    If you're trading up you better be getting the LS460.

    13 seconds in the quarter mile? Put the difference into your sti and you will kill that thing.

    8 gears though? damn

    A Drifterz dream right off the shelf. That exhaust for a stock car is nice but not the price paddle shift with auto...um NO. I would go with the BMW or Audi for that kind of $

    Looks like toyota/lexus is redefining their image just like what they did to
    the truck industry. It took them years to be accepted (truck owners
    are very brand oriented)

    They look for what people want and build according to market demand.
    Take for example the scions. This isf is a sick machine.
