fucking SEX. I would rock the FUCK outta that...
and get 45+ mpg![]()
Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
From what I've heard the electric motor runs out of juice really quick, so I wouldn't bet on it. Even the Prius only avgs 40+ in real world driving.Originally Posted by xPhantomSilviax

It never runs out of juice. It recharges under braking.Originally Posted by fcman

You are correct, but I've heard for a couple different sources that the E-motor does not last long enough, even with the fact that it recharges under braking.Originally Posted by 1SICKLEX

My statement wasn't based on research of the car itself. 45 just seemed like a nice number. My statement was more based on the fact that, aside from the Tesla roadster, most hybrid/electric cars are the SPED kids of the car design world.Originally Posted by fcman
The Tesla, however, is sex on 4 wheels, that out-accelerates a lambo...
in a few weeks I get to go meet the design guys behind this machine... so stupid excited.

GS 450h does 0-60 in 5.2 seconds and the 1/4 mile in the high 13s..not bad for a 4100lbs hybridOriginally Posted by xPhantomSilviax
Main drawback is the small trunk b/c of the batteries![]()

Hell yeah, I got to drive one at the "Taste of Lexus" event in Irvine. They're no joke, but yeah, like you said the trunk space is nonexistant. A 350z has more space...Originally Posted by 1SICKLEX
Lol, well then there's a serious lack of trunk space in all the GS's then. The one GS450h I looked at had a laughably small trunk for a car its size.Originally Posted by fleishelja
And what brand new Lexus wouldn't you rock??? lol its a lexus, Id rock any ballin LexusOriginally Posted by xPhantomSilviax
that car is sick. it's for cheap rich people i guess.
Electric motors make a fuck load of torque. They do recharge when braking(regenerative braking) but it can run out. Hybrids help fuel economy out alot in slow city driving, on the highway the internal combustion engine is doing most of the work.
theres no lack of trunk space in a GS hybrid, its actually hard to tell the difference until you pop the hood. its also not really good for gas savings, its more for a better torque curve. I dont think lexus was thinking fuel economy when they made any of the hybrids. go test drive them, they are alot faster then one would think.

And you know the funny thing is, is that when you put different rims on the new Rexus's it fucks up all the safety features on it..
