True. Perhaps you predicted it but in reality people wanna believe what they wanna believe and hear. Not everyone will be in agreement. Thats what makes car buying so great...there are other great choices out there.

I can't believe people are this gotdamn stuck on foglamps.

Sorry its lame at this point. Beyond lame.

Move on, who cares if you are right or wrong about some damn foglamps.

Lexus...where they don't have foglamps and its the end of the world and where others don't have foglamps and its genius.

Hilarious.

Sir, the LFA, Aventeder, M5 and XFR were on the shopping list but fawk, they don't have foglamps so they can't be considered.

The ****ing GS has maybe 8-10 world or in class firsts, best in class CD, weight etc etc etc and we are still talking about foglamps.

Yes the only reason why I don't own a Ferrari P4/5 right now is because it aren't got any foglights bro

It is not because I don't got the money or I aren't Jim Glickenhaus

I am pro fog light too, they just look so cool!

But I am slowly talking myself out of it, since HIDs and LEDs low beams are getting so good now, cars are slowly losing their fogs. So someday I am gonna need to buy a car without fogs, I must accept the reality

That is so true, it is always cool to be able to buy a JDM part that bolt right onto our USDM car that didn't come with the part

Kinda like how people hate things about cars, but they turn around and buy it anyway.

If you're referring to modding using aftermarket or third-part hardware or methods (outside of Lexus), then personally, I wouldn't want to resort to such.

It's more of a personal thing (since I'm more of a stock/factory kinda auto guy ).

In any case, based on what is seen below:


I guess there wouldn't be a need to.

Just a thought

Still have about 600 more photos to upload. Being this week is a bit busy for me with Thanksgiving, I hope to have everything up by this weekend including my write up. In the meantime here are a few photos from the press launch 2 weeks ago in Dana Point, CA.









Of the 9 colors available for the new GS here are Nebula Gray Pearl, Fire Agate Pearl, Meteor Blue Pearl




and the replacement to Matador Red...Riviera Red (GS 450h):
