Short Japanese Clip of IS350 and VDIM Off

So who's done those moves in the U.S. with the IS350 and VDIM off? Got tired of seeing the 2IS'es doing a straight line.
Cheers,
Kermee
EDIT: Anyone else notice the Shark Fin on this IS350?

From what I've experienced I notice the VDIM almost every day. One major thing is the steering... VDIM does not let you turn the steering wheel as fast even when doing a quick 3 point turn. VDIM engaging does not only happen when the Alarm goes off... Even when at a red light and you want to gun it after coasting and slowing down the power to the wheels cuts off for a slight second so your wheels don't spin out.
