Oh yeah. My 2000 GS400 does the same thing. What a joke that Lexus cannot or will not address this issue. My service rep was fully aware of this and said that Lexus doesn't consider it a problem.. It's nice to have a $50k car that idles like a Chevy Chevette at a stoplight.

That is correct, there is no throttle cable.

omegagavin - I have a 2000 GS400. Rough idle / cut out happened once on my car on a hot day with AC off when I came to a stop. I cleaned the throttle body which a friend said might be the problem. No problems since. I recommend you do this.
I think the reason it happens on 98 and 99s more than 2000s is because they generally have more miles and dirt in the throttle body.
