Default overall impressions...

i drove the car for 40 miles the first night i had her (i took delivery at almost 7:30 last night and just drove around and enjoyed her)... and i got pulled over in her already but nothing happened so im happy about that my initial impressions... i LOVE IT!!! the car is just so smooth and incredible and drives like a dream!! my ONLY negative thing that i can say (which is not Lexus's fault) is that the stock HID's dont even hold a candle to my Q45 headlights in my 2nd gen. that mod spoiled me for the longest time and i had some nice light at night and now these HID's just dont cut it for me i guess ill just have to deal with it

I always thought the Q45 mod was not a very bright light compared to the OEM 4300K HID's.....

Nice, is it possible to retrofit the Q45 headlights on the 3GS?
