What that sucks, we dont have that here in the US, although its been spoken many of times. I think Lexus doesn't love America as much!

LOL Who does? Too many great foreign cars arrive in the states weaker or with less options. Many never make it here at all. Look how many generations of Evo's and Skylines we missed out on. Ever read up on the BMWs M series overseas? They get like 100 more horses then us. And what about TVRs, Renault ...

They're detuned to 322hp.

Nice clean run Rider, it sounds really nice man. Someone should make a shift kit for the 3GS 460 because it didn't realize how soft 460's shift.

I remember seeing a product on ebay which made the auto shifting faster. Can't find it now.
