awh man. I want to see it. Hopefully someone can tape it and link it here. Stupid Comcast thinks we dont like SpeedTV, but they will give us Speed On Demand which doesnt have a damn thing but old Nascar races. 
I saw the episode they did with the IS350... WOW

People often say that if you worry about how much gas your luxury car uses, then you can’t really afford to buy it in the first place. Well, as Lexus knows, being concerned about how much fuel a car uses doesn’t always have to do with how much the fuel costs – or at least not in the traditional sense.

Lexus Test Driver
The show was alright in my opinion, but i just think they really didnt do a good job in really showing the car, majority of the time on the inside, you saw them in the driver seat, and on the exterior, you just saw the exterior. (kinda confusing the way im explaining it) The LS test drive i think was the best one, really showed the features on the car on the inside, and the performance level of the car, and then the IS was the second best, did a good job in explain that car, and last the GS Hybrid, sure they picked the most beautiful colors ( Black and Red) but it wasnt all that good.

There was a point in the show where they showed the drivers turning the GS450h traction control off. Doesn't the traction control automatically re-engage at speeds above 30mph or something like that?

They did but never mentioned it coming back on.
I thought the show was OK. They certainly emphasized the sporty side of the new GS but barely touched on the luxury portion or the features. At one point in the show they do a quick price comparison between this car, the E class and 5 Series. They do mention the others with options come out to more money but once you add in the options for the Lexus it would all be about even. I thought that all the Lexus hybrid models come loaded. Am I incorrect?
