Interesting stuff, thanks for sharing.

Very cool! How did you find out about these? Better yet, why did Lexus allow the posting? Kudos to them if this is a way of supporting the enthusiasts.

Unfortunately I found these videos quite unprofessional. The information was good but these people could have certainly been more professional, better informed, and better prepared.

"I don't know...let me look...I don't have that memorized...I'm not sure...I can look...I can get that for you...as far as I know..."

Come on guys. That was pretty much unacceptable for a press event on a car of this nature.

^thats why lexus doesnt release these videos, and posts like that may lead lexus to ask that the videos be removed and prevent us from access to other videos like it.

it looks like it was a press briefing.

given the environment i dont see anything wrong with the lexus presentation.

obviously the people there did not know everything (the comment on competitors seemed to be a joke), but they did have key points to send across, and could get anything the press needed. thats most important.

the videos were not put up so everyone on the internet could get all their questions answered. and if you were there and had any questions, they would have worked to get answers for YOU if they didnt know them.

He said that was the pricing for the IS 350...another mistake.

Did a search in YouTube.com using the key words "Lexus IS-F" then sort by date. Once in awhile I would check the youtube site to see if any new videos are posted.

Can't wait for the IS-F to arrive. My local dealer is expecting to receive two (black and silver) in about 2 weeks. I am first in line for the silver one. More i look at the available videos the grey color looks nicer. What may stop me from buying the IS-F is the unknown price. I am debating between the GS460 or the IS-F. Decision... Decisions...

hm...very interesting...stupid guy was asking about the IS-F first then he switched his mind to ask about the IS350??..lol...I am wondering if this meeting was in Canada or something...cuz of the high price of 61-62k for the IS350?...

I agree completely, but I cut them some slack because I believe these conferences were held when there wasn't a whole lot of information about the car, yet. You can tell by the information in these videos that they are dated.

i saw those the other day. the thing that stood out the most was that the presenters don't know what the heck they're talking about. the people in the audience act somewhat clueless too. they need some enthusiasts up there to present.

Did I hear them right? The spring rates in the front were increased 90% in the front, and 50% in the rear? The car felt firmer than an IS350 when I drove it, but it didn't feel that firm...

Saw the vids the other day, in their defense, the guy who said "60K" was the tech guy from Lexus college, he probably isn't focused on the marketing and sales aspect, he's focused on what's under the hood. The lady who had the info in her folder, Nancy Fein, is VP of customer service for Lexus. Both were at the IS-F and LX 570 press presentations.

hapaboy

did i hear her right that it was quicker than a ferrari F430??? lmao.
