Default More responsive AFS?

Just got my car back from the fuel pipe recall and had a new IS250 loaner. One thing that I liked about it was the headlight beam pattern seams more sharp. That, and their AFS seems more responsive. It seems to turn more and at much slower speeds than the GS. At parking lot speeds (less than 10mph), it seemed to have started working, whereas the GS needs a decent amount of speed more for it start working. Anyway to make it more responsive?

I noticed the same on the ES350 loaner that I'm driving. The AFS seems to work a great deal better than my GS.

That's about the only thing I like better on the ES....

Too bad there's no way to make it more sensitive... Or is there...?

I've experienced the same with the rx400h loaner I got. Asked Lexus about the issue but they told me that the headlight system and all parts are just the same having the same prduct numbers etc... Still I think its different as it was quite obvious for me.

I notice the same with all loaner cars I get compared to my IS350. The loaners I have gotten have been ES350, RX400h, IS350. Maybe it's physiological.
