Lexus Quad Exhaust
WOW. I was driving (well, dad was) along today, and I see a new Lexus in front of me, and then I register these quad oval exhausts in a \/ shape! Looks SOOOO cool! I'll find a pic...gimme a sec... (Josh is a douche, I just realised that you won't be giving me a sec because it will be instant to you, but its a few seconds to me to find the pic, oh, bugger it, heres the pic:

Yes it is a V8. It is meant to be Toyotas, well Lexus answer to the BMW M3.
Quad tips. but only 2 are connected, 2 of them are fake.

I'm lucky enough to say I've driven one. Handy being related to the Lexus chief mechanic in Australia. Nice enough, I suppose, but I think a slightly tuned Ralliart is MUCH better value for money, despite the cool exhausts.

Sure would have scrambled the GTS driver's brain... but they persist with their tractor-technology pushrod motor still....
Nothing wrong with a pushrod motor.
I actually prefer the good old Windsor motor that is in the T3 T-Series over the quad overhead cam V8 engines that Ford use now. The T3 engine is soo much more livelier and a heap more fun to drive.
Def looks better in the flesh but at that price, I think I'd rather pony up a bit more and get a C63 or M3 sedan. Both would be nicer for my tastes.
As for the quad tip, I think they look alright. Some people claim they look too riceboy or riced up, but I think that's Lexus own marketing target... a bit different to the normal crowds of people who flock to the C63 and M3 purely because of badge appeal and 'elegance'.
That being said, I think fake tips is lame on a $140k car.
