BTW, these are two Lexus on my list that I test drove, both on the same day:

RCF

LC500

Awesome cars, especially the exhaust note, which I admit, I miss from time to time

A fine exhaust note is thrilling. I'll take instant power over it though.

🤣🤣🤣. It’s so interesting seeing that only 3% chose environmental reasons and yet hydrogen car companies try their hardest to tout the so called environmental benefits to try to market their cars which no one wants. 🤣🤣🤣

For me it was performance first, then charging at home second. Once I drove one, I knew I had to own one.
