This does make a mockery of having quad pipes. Enough the young kids on the block with their body-kitted Citroen C2s with four pipes have them all connected.

Only one word describes LEXUS right now.

WHAT THE....

I cant believe it. Not only do they give it those stupid quads, but they arent even part of the exhaust system! Thats so disappointing. I'm running late but I'll read the reviews later.

I just noticed that in one of the reviews they managed to achieve 0-60 in 4.2! That's really impressive. I knew Lexus were being vague when they said "<4.9", However, they clearly have a lot of work to do judging by first skim reading of the reviews. I'll read them later...

I noticed that a long time ago, but thought that it was a prototype thing.

Just have to say: Have you seen a R8 ekshaust ?. It's not as bad as this, but still..
