Cool Is it too much to ask for a hybrid IS?


Well actually, that is all. I just love Hybrids. I d love it if a hybrid IS came out. It cannot happen though, I guess. Not enough space for battery and electric engine unlikely RX,GS and LS.I would rather if the GS was allwheel drive but, I believe that crazy-Japanese-car people know better.
What is cool is that if by any chance somebody out of 1,000,000 people who surf through cyberspace daily, types IS Hybrid he will come to my thread. Even though it sais absolutuly nothing. I am the first one to combine thise words.
And I got a new combination.
What about the first Hybrid, AWD, Convertible with 4 doors SUV? Yeah, that be cool.
OK, I apologise for taking your time, goodnight everybody.
What does woot mean?

I would love an IS 300h. I would gladly trade in my 250 for that. But it looks like Lexus is going to be sticking the h on the bigger engines. IMO.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The term "w00t" (pronounced, and sometimes spelled, "woot"; IPA pronunciation: [wūt]) is a slang interjection used to express happiness or excitement, most often expressed via the Internet. The expression has been used in Usenet posts [1], multiplayer computer games (especially first-person shooters), the IRC and SILC chat protocols, instant messages, weblogs, and web forums, and even spoken aloud. It is considered as leet speak.

Possible derivations
--As a vocal expression, perhaps a portmanteau of "woo" and "hoot".
--From MUD video games, meaning "Wow! Loot!".
--Acronym for "Win Over Other Team", or in the original Quake servers as "We Owned the Other Team" or "We own other teams".
--In the hacking/cracking scene, the administrative account on Unix-like systems is usually named "root". One of the aims in cracking a system of this type is gaining "root" access, and hence full control of the system. Under this derivation "w00t" is a leetspeak corruption of the word "root", used as a general exclamation of victory.
--In online gaming, the word came from "woohoo, loot", or "wonderful loot"
--The Simpsons (episode 146, season 7, 1996). Itchy and Scratchy is replaced by a political cartoon - immediately following the "amendment to be" song in the cartoon, a manic amendment repeatedly exclaims "woot" whilst firing a pair of pistols and running up the Congress steps.

Usage
Used as an exclamation, often used alone.
Example: "w00t! i just pwn3d that n00b!" (Commonly used while online gaming.)
