Interesting, I guess they aren't selling quite as well as they once were. I was surprised what a significant percentage of RX production the hybrid represented last year given the premium that Lexus was charging.

I had the 400h for a weekend. It was ALRIGHT! Nothing to brag about. Other then how uber quiet it is when your at a stop light.

I just brought my 2IS for the grinding start up sound too and they gave me a GS350. Nice car, but seemed a little underpowered. It probably is a nice ride with the V8 though.

You sure it wasn't the GS300? As far as I know, the new GS350s aren't no slouch seeing they have the same engine as the IS350 but with a little more weight. GS460 would be something else though....
