Great ride, let me know if you have brembo break issues. Most of us have had a brake squeal noise with these brakes. Lexus dose not have a solution for this problem. Let me know if you have any success with a resloution

The Sport is a great car. The only issue I know of was mentioned in another post - the Brembo brake squeal. I had a 2010 Sport and worked a deal with Lexus to get int a 2011 non-Sport just because of the brakes. Couldn't stand the noise. Both Lexus and I tried everything (including replacing the brakes/rotors a second time) and couldn't get rid of it. Interestingly, my brake squeal didn't start until they replaced the brakes at about 15,000 miles. Lexus does not seem to have a fix for it.

Other than that, the car is a great compromise betwen sport handling and comfort. I always kept the air suspension set on Sport and never felt it was a jarring ride. I also found the shift points in the Sport transmission to be quicker than the standard LS that I have now.

Enjoy the car! It's a great ride.
