Sorry, I had a bad day the other day...I really like this car and there are definitely things I would change about it. I asked in my training why they kept the same engines. I didn't get a great answer, but they did say that with the new suspension upgrades, it would feel like a more powerful car. I think customers are tired of the 2.5. It under performs and lacks the uumph it needs to get up to speed. I personally don't own a Lexus, but I do drive one everyday. It just seems like there is a small lag and an even greater one when getting up to speed. We didn't get to drive these prototypes, but I imagine they are relatively the same in comparison to the latter generation. Sometimes you cannot put a bandage on, sometimes stitches are required. I guess we will see what happens in June.

Nice video! Thanks for sharing!

I might stop by the dealership when I get back from deployment and check the new IS out.
