I actually got to sit in the Branew HS at SEMA last week. The HS in Japan obviously gets a lot more cool features we never get here in the USA. I know that Black w/Black Birdseye maple is not an option for the HS in Japan, but Branew made their HS very desireable...

Its not a Corolla its like almost a Camry in size..Parked our IS250 next to one..the IS is smaller than the HS..They hid its size quite well...

It really bugs me that Toyota de-contented the USA model so much. When fully loaded, the HS approaches $50K, yet it's still not possible to get a wood steering wheel, there's no smog detector in the A/C, no seat cushion extender, no passenger seat memory, etc. It seems that marketing really wants to ensure the HS is lesser than the ES in the lineup, which is a shame.

Very true. My coworkers used to tease me about my "Lexus Camry". Then, I gave one guy a ride to a meeting one day. He was blown away by the features, comfort, quietness, etc. When we reached our destination, he remarked "Wow, I had thought that Lexus was just an expensive Toyota". Of course, technically this is true, but there's a reason why it's expensive.
