See, none of those things make sense to me, but it does to you so that is all that matters. Choice of words always matter, and bclexus, its ok bro. its.....ok.

lets all give him a hug so he can feel better!
What you are stating makes no sense, but I see that's nothing new.

Blind Spot Monitor and Intuitive Park Assist are Lexus options. You do not see owners putting a badge on their Lexus car to let everyone know that their car has those Lexus options! That would be senseless. For you to add a badge that suggests your F-Sport model car is F-Sport 'equipped' is likewise senseless.

It would make far more sense if you added a badge that let everybody know your car was Michelin equipped, or Koni equipped, or Megan equipped, or Air Lift equipped, or AIMGAIN equipped, or RR Racing equipped, etc. Having a badge on your F-Sport that states it is F-Sport 'equipped' is just laughable.

This thread is proof that's it's better to remain quiet and let someone's actions prove your point.

I, for one, wouldn't mind a "Lexus-equipped" badge... You know, just to really drive the point home.

That's called being smart and not relying on technology to always save you. Good job.

Thanks for the offer, I'm not a badge kind of guy. I think that badge reminds me of the ones on my Nissan cars... they look horrible.

People just need to learn they don’t need to see their car in half of the sideview mirror and blind spots are pretty much eliminated if you look to your side for the mirror. Would be nice though if we had an integrated bubble mirror
