The movies are fantastic in my honest opinion..!!!

Great look at how the Park Assist sensors will look like, Engine sound, the moving gauges, cut-aways of the car in motion, different wheels... etc.. etc..

Enjoy,

The first video already been mentioned somewhere, since everyone are hyped about this car, it's hard to find specific posts since most of the threads are similar.

Just found youtube version of them, the links you posted are kinda slow, at least for me.

Are the paddles actual shifters in the 4GS like they are in the ISF, or are they still just gear limiters?

front end is so hot, very hot and very menacing looking...but rear end really disappoints. I was hoping for some wide, big booty hips back there but it just fizzles away.

I just wished lexus did something to the quarter panel and rear end similar to that of the latest mercedes E class, an illusion of nice wide stance with narrowing hips always makes the car look more aggressive.

it looks like a car with a aftermarket front bumper kit but decided not to upgrade the rear bumper and side skirts.

I quite like the rear, I think it's very elegant. The rear lighting is very nice as well. The profile is what's bland, but I think space and aerodynamics was a higher priority.
