Front brakes lock up under light braking
Why didn’t my 01 GS430 have this same problem? I am guessing it is because it had a hydraulic brake system that WORKED, and not some flawed electronic brake system that needs software updates to work correctly (just like a Blu-Ray player that takes several minutes to turn on, and always needs a software update to play the latest movie you just rented).
I do agree BinaryJay, and do not romp on the gas pedal until the car is fully warmed up.
It can take up to 5-10 minutes for my idle to drop to a consistent 1k or less.

I timed the warm-up, and it took 10 minutes before the idle RPM dropped from 1k to 650-750. The car was pushing warm air out from the heater, and the thermostat was about a third of the way up (directly in the middle when reaches normal operating temp), after about 4-5 minutes.
