5L V8 producing 450ps?? Someone must have fantasized too much. That's N/A V10/V12 territory already.

EDIT: OK from the original post @ Edmunds I see the 450ps horsepower figure was for the LS600h. So it is in line with the previous speculations after all.

This guys are for the most part non car enthusiast that are given a bunch of data to memorize over a short period of time. And sometimes inaccurate data at that. Basically theyre mostly car morons out for that quick connection (ok some may know their stuff but thats an exception.)

Think about it 70 psi? Tell me what car tire out there can handle 70 psi? Are you telling me theyre going to develop this super unique tire for a single non exotic luxury sedan? Man I would of called that guy a idiot and demanded someone else to speak with.
