You can't even stop for buying even just a little stuff I guess, many shopping mall/plaza lots have speed bumps ...

i think as long as driven correctly, speed bumps shouldn't be a problem.

oh hahaha, you bet!!!!! if you look at the pictures, there is a deflector right in front of the front wheels. usually that's what scrape first, and that's awful feeling already

Meh I figure that's what all those carbonfiber underbody panels are for.
BTW, it's easy to replace those CF panels, from what I've been told by Lexus.
Of course how much it costs to replace is a different issue.

No, it means unless he tracks it, he'd be afraid to drive it and it became garage queen
No wonder most exotics have such low mileage

haha, lexus won't be happy then?
but seriously, when i look at people driving their ferraris at car and coffee, they care but not like they are going to cry when they scrape. lamborghini is different coz' they have a setting to raise the car up for clearance. i guess it's just like me with my cars. if i scrape, oh well, move on
i guess when people are rich enough for a 400k lfa, they feel the same too
