Thanks for the feedback! Still in process on a couple of items this afternoon / evening. We are going to combine the SC model forums to align with the rest of the model setups have the classified order roughly mirror the same order as the model forums.
Some potential future changes for the vendor forums and we'll be running a graphic contest to update the top-of-forum banner.

Cool, I'm looking forward to it.
People are so quick to complaint when things aren't right that I thought it might be nice to give kudos for a change.

Cool, i suppose.
What is this: "lexus HS250 forum"
"2010 Lexus HS 250h Hybrid Preview and Pricing article"
One thread, 9 replies and yet it is above the ES/other forums that have thousands of threads?
Move it to the bottom, below/above the useless 'prototypes' forum.
kthxbye

Dave + Team,
The updates look great! I know that you guys have resisted combining the SC forums previously, but I think it's a great idea for the sake of space and simplicity.
If it was left to me, I would lay it out...
IS Forum
ES Forum
HS Forum
GS Forum
LS Forum
SC Forum
RX Forum
GX Forum
LX Forum
Seems easier / more logical to go from entry-level to flagship in terms of sedans and SUVs, with the SC stuck between them. Eventually you could add an LF-A forum beneath the SC as well.
The new setup looks great but the philosophy of seperating luxury and sport sedans seems sort of jumbled at first glance- IS, GS, SC, HS, ES, LS
?. Entry level to flagship seems to be a more natural "progression" in terms of price and philosophy but that is just my .02. It could also be somewhat open to interpretation, for example, when the LF-A comes out, does it go up with the IS and GS in the "sporty" section, or do we place it somewhere entirely different? The 1SC was rather sporty while the 2SC is not, so does it belong more with the LS, or up with the IS and GS? Also, the LS has a sporty side (Touring, and the forthcoming sport model) so should it be classified with sporty or luxury? See what I mean?

Hi MP - There are a number of reasons we selected the method we did and it was discussed by the moderator team for several months. The volume of members viewing and posting posting in those forums is also an important factor that we weigh heavily. We have the model progression within purpose.
The LF-A would go at the top end of the sporty should it come out. The LS stays where it is and if a new sporty model has a substantial post volume / interest we would consider adding a sub-forum for it.
I understand almost everyone is resistant to change. After a day or two using the new layout you'll get used to it.

No worries Mike, appreciated! Just wanted to explain the 'why' behind the order we selected.

We don't plan to add one at the moment but have discussed it. If there is a large volume of unique IS-C threads that doesn't overlap the 2IS (same exact question/answer for the sedan), we'll readdress that. Right now there are very few.
