    The interior reminds me of the 1st generation Sc300, very refined. Nice test drive.

    Nicely done, a great review with focus on daily drivers and consumers. Unlike the track geeks who only test drive for the numbers on paper. Plus, the lower cost of ownership/maintenance of Lexus is another great attribute.

    Here in New York City I would have to special order a rear-wheel-drive version of his car, it is beautiful. Great video

    What a great job again Chris! You have not missed a beat my friend. Glad to see you are still making those vids. That Lexus has aged well, I hope that a next generation is coming.

    I fell in love with the design and simplicity of control centre. I had an deposit on a golf R.. While waiting I got looking at Lexus. The Lexus is a fair amount more money. however I bought it. I didn't like the infotainment centre on the Golf. I keep cars a long time therefore reliability and this will age better? It has the same power train as out 2011 Venza SUV which ran for 370,000 kilometres with no problem... 0 to 60 in 6 seconds is as you say is fast enough. I dont plan to track it.

    AWD on a rear drive car makes sense if you live somewhere that gets rain on the regular and certainly winter weather

      Although FWD bias AWD are superior in inclement weathers compared to RWD bias, but having AWD is still better than nothing. Always make sure to have dedicated winter tires.
      How I know? I driven both different setup before in Alaska, and they both are day and night different when the roads are slippery.

      Get a 911 with AWD and you have the best of all worlds. 😉

      That's how I feel, Todd Watkins. I prefer RWD, but AWD is definitely useful. I wouldn't buy an SUV/crossover without it. Thanks for watching!

    That transmission tunnel. Is it a hindrance in any way?

    • @AutoAcademics
      @AutoAcademics  Месяц назад

      If I remember correctly, this car is only a 4-seater so there are only 2 seats in back, making the transmission hump a non-issue. That back middle area is just a small parcel tray. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

    Mr Han: Mr. Williams your RC 350 F Sport is under powered. You'll have to learn to accept defeat.
    Mr Williams: When it comes I won't even notice.
    Mr Han: How so?
    Mr Williams: I'll be too busy lookin' good.
