What is wrong with Diesel?? Mercedes and BMW makes great powerful yet fuel efficient diesel cars, why can't Lexus.

Lol not only cuz I own one... but because its faster and more pretty. Lexus interior might be a little better, but when you see the 2005 sedans, their inetrior got improoved as well. I still think the quality of interior in the Lexus might be better, but the 05 sedans look much better than they did before. Too bad they didnt release them 05 G35's faster. They had been on ten best car for 2 years in a row.

from the side it looks a bit like the new 3 series... also has the shape.. sort of... of the LF-Y or LF-X coupe concept!

i think i like it... finally toyota has gone for VVTi for both intake and exhaust valves!

btw, what does DIN hp mean?

DIN - Deutsches Industrie Norm (or something like that)

I think its just a euro 'standard' for HP, much like you have a 'standard' DIN size for car radios/cd players.
