breplica's comments said the engine braking was stronger than expected. hardly a cause for concern.
I disagree wholeheartedly, the transmission is a huge upgrade from my ISF. The shifts are smooth at light throttle and it bang shifts at full throttle. It also downshifts when needed. I drive in custom mode. My suspension is set to performance mode and the transmission to normal mode. I would drive in Sport S+, but it wont go above 8th gear. On the FW I prefer all 10 gears. The 2018s are pretty snappy in normal mode. I wouldn't change a thing

I would love to see Lexus offer a full factory ground effect kit option.
I would also like to see an air suspension option so that I can raise my car to navigate steep inclines.
I am 6’2” and a driver’s seat extender would be nice for longer legged drivers.
I actually miss my fog lites. I know they ain’t necessary, but I like the look.
Driver’s door shud pop up on approach.

down into a lower gear, ready to blast off again - like you said, what a terrific feature for an automatic trans .....

i did a full on panic stop a while back; must have been goin maybe 50 in 6th or 7th gear, and all of a sudden the downshifts were like a drum roll bam bam bam

My issues are when slowing from about 25mph-0 in gears 4-3-2. It isn't seamless nor as refined as it could be.

i've never had a car with a trans do this before so i have nothing to compare it to, rendering me ignorant as to seemlessness or refinement,
but thats a lot of momentum youre stuffing back into the system
when you stomp on the brakes at high speed
