Kinda mad, although I'm happy Lexus was listening they are doing everything I wanted, minus the more horses.

8 speed tranny is a nice addition but nothing else notable. Still needs about 50+ hp to bring the F Sport to life. Feels like a dog off the line in Sport and Sport+ but warms up quickly once it shifts into second. Maybe my old G35 spoiled me chirping the tires from every red light and that's not how these are supposed to act.

 

Including the new final drive, we are looking at ~7% lower 1st and 2nd gears, so you may just get your wish.

 

I'm even mad that they don't combine F-Sport and Luxury in one.

 

Is the 8-speed in the AWD? Or just RWD?

 

8-speed only in RWD models.

 

I spoke to my Lexus dealership today. They are still getting allocations for the 2013. I guess we are looking at November for the 14s.

 

glad i waited, cant wait to get one!

 

Glad I bought my '13 in March of 2012 so I will have been driving and enjoying it for 19 months before the '14 is available.

 

No words needed to describe my reaction to your comment.

 

I bought mine in Feb 2012. Can't believe they put them out so early!

 

Man right when they became available to the masses!!
I bought in March as well.

 

Greatest answer +1 on that

 

i hear you - that's what happens with early adopters.

same thing when i bought my IS (first year).

 

They should started matching HP numbers with model numbers. GS350 = 350 HP, LS460 = 460 HP, LX570 = 570 HP.. (That would rock!)
