  1. The reason you rarely see the same wheels as yours is because it was the least popular model and sold the least due to the fact that is was the only car in the Lexus range not to have leather. It came with the fake/synthetic suede called Alcantara. Pity because the wheels are nice.
  2. http://au.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=9133 Its not off topic in the general section...there are some hi res shot there too. Australian launch is in Feb 2011.
  3. Redbull look like the best team to be with in F1 as they party like no other. Firstly with Webber & Vettel diving into Monaco Harbour..has this ever been done before by a winning driver? Then with the team diving into the pool on their yatch!!!! Photos tell the story:
  4. Mate, the date on that post is "27 January 2007 - 02:53 PM" you are extremely unlikely to get a reply. If I were you I'd visit a lexus dealership and ask them to do it. :) Plus V16 is now out... Dealers would be throwing V13 in the bin these days.
  5. Webber took pole from the Pol (Kubica) by 0.3 sec.....biggest gap I've seen in a while & 0.4 sec quicker than his more fancied team mate. Alonso from the back is odds on to get into trouble with a slower car.
  6. Not possible. You can put the key in the drivers door lock, turn it to the right and hold it & all the windows & sunroof close. Remote would be better but this gets it done. Does it work on your car?
  7. Pole will be a 3 way battle between Vettel, Webber & Alonso. Redbulls aren't showing 100% yet. I so hope it rains during the race.
  8. Parramatta......service direct 9204 6520 Sydney City....service direct 8303 1933 Chatswood......service direct 9406 8388 I think the price you've been quoted ($920) is very competitive....
  9. What made you think that? I've used both non-genuine/aftermarket & the MY10 factory fitted USB plug and the factory USB plug set up is better than an iPod specific plug as it give you the flexability of using both iPod & other memory storage devices. Plus it displays better on the screen. Also the factory system gives you better functionality with a more extensive iPod menu.
  10. And technically void your insurance, Yep and being a relatively inexperienced driver you're bound to be making an insurance claim at some stage, again. So its definitely something not to risk.
  11. Thats right Jom. The boot deadlock is a button on the right hand edge just inside the glovebox.
  12. Hey Franky he's got a 2010 model...USB is standard from factory in the centre console. So your part right...it is thrown in with purchase. Welcome 52midnite & congrats on the car...what colour combo did you get? In regards to your iPhone, the salesman that sold you the car should have shown you how to get the tunes flowing. Try this....plug the cable into the USB in the car but not your iPhone yet. Start music playing on your iPhone then plug the cable into the iPhone and you should then be able to select "USB" on the audio screen. All going well you should be singin' & dancin'. Let us know how you go.
  13. Amazing how right you were nearly 2 years ago!!! Yes it has got "MUSHEEEYY" And no, not just for the hell of it.....well done.
  14. To overtake more cars? Lewis. To finish the race in front of the other? Jenson. Now moving forward, IDC/Project, who/what are your predictions for Monaco this weekend? By the way there is possible showers forecast for Monaco through out the week. That plus the fact that there is a huge difference between the quickest & slowest cars means drama for sure. My prediction: Carnage.
  15. Here's some pics of it done.. http://www.turbofast.com.au/lexus.html
  16. Maybe ask the dealer to hook it up to the IT in the workshop and clear any "codes" it might have.
  17. Hey no bagging of Lewis, he was quick. As a Mclaren fan I take it you're also supporting Jenson? He is leading the WDC yet there is more talk about his team mate that is 6th in the WDC, behind Nico Rosberg. I don't understand that about Mclaren fans. Why do you think there is that disproportionate coverage/support of the team mates?
  18. Lexus of Brighton are Melbourne's number 1 dealer. For sure give them a try.
  19. They are saying it was a failure of the rim not a puncture...I think it was a tyre letting go. The quickest lap is the result of the lighter fuel load towards the end of the race.......but you've got to ask why? When you are no chance of catching Webber for the win and Vettel is no chance of catching you for second.... Why risk it with a fastest lap??? Why not back it off a bit like Webber did? Why? In reference to Lewis he is like a real life Col Trickle from Days of Thunder the Tom Cruise movie. And I quote: Harry Hogge: "Oh he can drive. He can drive beyond the limits of the tires, the engine, the car or anything else. If the sum' bitch listened to me we wouldn't hardly ever lose a race!" Lewis needs Harry Hogge as a manager...hahaha
