Here are some videos to keep you guys occupied. Unfortunately there is no sound, but these are videos that Lexus provided us with to show. You may or may not have seen these already. Enjoy.

One of them is a Tungsten Pearl IS350 on a two-way back round the other is a Matador Red IS350 at Willow Springs doing a hot lap:

You will need Windows Media Player to view these if you don't have it already:

Gorgeous...the second vid looks to be additional footage similar to the NewCarTestDrive vid...

 

The car looks pretty good on the track

Some of the cornering in the 1st vid looks speeded up.

 

Perhaps that's the real reason the video has no sound?

Seriously I don't think the video is sped up at all. Everything looks well paced to me.

Thanks flip for the clips. The red car absolutely owns.

 

Thanks for the vids! the cars look stunning!

 

Stunning indeed!!!

 

Nice clips thanks for the links.

 

thanks, but the 2nd video isn't really working for me...it won't show

 

Thanks Ryan for the videos. It's nice to finally see high resolution quality videos. Can't wait to see more videos from you soon.

That red color on the video was so shiny it was blinding.

 

In the 2nd Vid the car shows massive understeering..... Does the IS350 have a traction system like the one on the new GS430? I hope not.

 

I would agree that the transitions, entry/exit of the IS at the track are not as smooth as one would expect. The nanny is kicking in quite a bit, which I am sure makes it hard to get the best lap times.

Have there been any ways found to turn the nanny off in other Lexus cars? (sorry to ask, but I am new to the brand).

 

where there is a will, there is a way. who knows, it may be something simple such as a cheat code or a fuse trick.. time will only tell.
however, i personally feel that every car on the road should be nannied cause there are quite a few idiots out there thinking they're professional racers on public roads.
