All just IMHO.

I agree as well. The behavior of the folks has deteriorated over the years. It's not like the event is that exclusive or the food that special that I need to go out of my way to see it. Sure it's nice to eat free food but honestly why put up with the people if the product, which is ultimately what I'm interested in, isn't there?

sorry if i sound harsh on lexus, but that's just some of my expectations from a brand of this class

If there were an event with all the class and quality of the food and entertainment at the Audi and the closed course, performance-like layout of the last Lexus event... then I'd have no choice but to follow them around the country and visit every stop they make. Instead of a Dead-Head you could just call me a Lex-Head.
Ya, that definitely wasn't the case last year in Orange County. If I didn't know better I'd swear I had walked into an outdoor Wal-Mart. I'm all for equality, but there are just some people who make THEMSELVES outsiders. It's Taste Of Lexus, not the early-bird special at Hometown Buffet. Even though it's not entirely Lexus' fault, that was just one more area where the Audi event definitely had TOL beat.![Sad](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/sad.gif)

I didnt really see people rushing the tables and acting crazy over food but a few things i noticed were that there were people who stole the plates, I saw kids waste or even spill perfectly good food. There were kids everywhere and they either misbehaved or even damaged some products they were screaming and crying. This year kids should not be allowed. Also the Lexus mints they were giving away were supposed to be taken one for each person I dont know how many people i saw take several at a time and come back for more. Some people have no class. This year lets hope there are less ghetto people there.

lol I have 2 of those Lexus mints, now how did I end up with those...![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
BTW, I just received the latest issue of Lexus magazine and it states that the Taste of Lexus will have the LS 460 and 460 L for preview. Not clear if you can drive it or not, but still good news nonetheless

How does one get the Lexus magazines? Do we have to subscribe with Lexus?

i noticed the quality of the food selection also went down after each TasteofLexus event. I remember the VERY first event during the launch of the RX and Lexus SUVs, they had seafood with tiny shrimp and lobster if I remember correcty with cheesecake selections. The IS and GS were just sandwiches and eggrolls.
Cutting down on costs i guess.

Considering how much you contribute on CL, plus as an owner of the 'jewel of Lexus,' the SC, I think not sending you the magazine is a serious oversight indeed!!! We've been getting the magazine since some time after we got our 2 ES.
I looked inside the latest issue and found some info...the Lexus magazine address (for updating/changing/canceling subscriptions) is:
Lexus
PO Box 899
Brea, CA 92822-9896
You can also e-mail them at Lexus-Editor@lexus.com...
Perhaps having the VIN# as proof of Lexus ownership might be handy.
And I hope people don't abuse this information and inundate them with requests, spam etc..
Anyhow, back on topic...the blurb in the magazine mentions 'any current Lexus model' as well as 'several competitor vehicles' to be present at the event.

it's funny, we hardly read magazines, and this is actually the only magazine that my wife LOVES to read, and she reads almost everything in it. but yet, this is one mgazine we never receives...
