OK before I say anything I have to say that Lexus Russia does very good interactive web experiences, they look good and they are fun

Check out http://www.lexus-gs.ru/

But one thing that caught my eye was in the intro when guy is racing with the animal and doing over 120km/h on a street with pedestrian. Oh boy that thing would never fly in US.
Also I find it odd they used GS300 to showcase performance instead of 460 or 450h.

Check it out!

I am sure it's "professional driver at closed course, please do not attempt" type of deal

and from the rims, it looks like the AWD

awesome video tho, thanks for posting

*oh yea, btw, did you ever see the US GS commercials? I'd call that more reckless

ecount00

Here are some real reckless shots from Russia. The guy in GS caused a major accident, 10+ cars were involved:

Both guys in GS survived with just minor injuries

I wonder what he said to his friend when his car finally stopped moving after that accident....." well....the airbags work" Haha that was a hot video though, maybe they used a awd cause he was in the sand on the construction site..?

its good to see our cars will hold up to some hardcore collisions. When I had my EDFC mounted and wired the tech could not believe the number of airbags he came across

I dont think the driving is that much more reckless than the GS350 commercials we had last year with the 2 gs's racing through new york

One thing I don't understand, how come they have GS460/GS450h and GS300? No GS350?!? http://www.lexus-russia.ru/range/gs/...ons/index.aspx

When you read (for those who can ) details of different GS300 trims, standard (executive) model comes with leather wrapped steering wheel, while steering wheel with wood only on Premium model. Luxury model adds Mark Levinson audio.

^^^^ ...and 0-60 well 0-100km/h (close enough) 450h rated lower then 460??? 5.8 versus 5.9??? This is wrong.

yea! gs460 is more like 5.4

different regions get different cars. some places they only have gs300 and no gs350

and prices aren't even comparable. cars in the US are dirt cheap

The cars right now are less than dirt cheap
