It's a Typo. And two of you guys picked it up I probably should have changed it when I reformatted it, in fact I think I just might.

Article Edited. Typo Corrected.

Thanks for posting the pdf, Lou. I checked here yesterday around 2 to see if anybody had seen it yet while holding the paper copy in my hand. It's on the back page of a section, so I'm going today to get a frame and mount it in my garage :-)

I noticed it too Obvious typo. It doesnt lessen the article one bit. I like the writer and I wish he was still on a car show. He was the best person on the car show with Adam Corolla , He could have done the show by himself

I wrote Dan a note at the WSJ and thanked him for bringing such an outstanding machine to the attention of the WSJ readers.

I also corrected him on the 0-60 time.

16"x12" frame (removing bottom of page) fits the article well if anybody wanted to order a frame online...

That's a great idea. I'll do that too...

some magazines have gotten 0-60 times of as low as 4.2 but the advertised time from Lexus is 4.6. Lexus will have to be conservative .

The other inaccuracy is his referring to the "F Sport division" I cringed at that. It's the F division. Period.
