with air suspension and 19" rims. The standard wheelbase will not. I was talking about having both a standard wheelbase 600h and a 600hL would be nice too. The AWD system on the 600hL is a mechanical one. The 5.0 V8 has the CVT and 2 Electric Motors behind it like the GS450h but then there is a power split device to send power forward to the front axles and conventionally to the rear. It will get the power immediately to the pavement and say so long farewell to the Bavarians and Berliners....

ok, i have to say it again, 18" rotors front and 17" rotors back? i don't see how that's possible. i don't think you even see that on the slr or the porsche gt. in any case, 13.5" rotors and you need 17". 14" rotors will need 18" wheels. 15" rotors, you will most likely need 19" wheels. with 18" rotors? we need 22" wheels???
not to mention, a rotor like that, if exits, will probably coz' about 5k each?
i saw the same document, i still have no idea what they actually mean in it

The intent is that the touring package will have a heavier duty brake set up.

prelude to the actual production values. If you have 19" wheels then the calipers would not have enough clearance to attach to the 18" rotors. I'll have to get a confirmation on what that spec means...

The TP Touring Package will have...
14" spiral drilled front rotors and 13.4" rear ventilated. Air springs added to the coils. 19" wheel/tires. Should be the best handling LS so far....

that's what i was waiting for rock, thanks for the info! 14" rotors from factory, this is massive!!!! awesome that lexus is doing it. reading the C&D braking results though, i wonder if this is why they have a bigger brakes setup, coz' of the weight of the car or whatever reason.
either case, those big rotors front and back that's definitely nice!!!!
