If Lexus is so big on their "L", why don't you see them selling hats with it?

Lexus drivers usually are the ones that make challenges every time they see my M3. They must like the look of the E92 M3 rear end, right?

I don't get your word play.

But i find from my experience that it's not lexus that display this kind of obnoxious behavior more like personal pickup trucks, and some beaten old vehicle drivers that could care less if they crash their $500 junk on wheels.

I never get challenged by anyone in mine. So many BMWs on the road these days that to most, they are all the same I think. No one even looks twice. At least where I live.

Whoa, you forgot the most important use of this space, rod bearing complaints, concerns, issues, Blackstone reports, replacements, lawsuits, places to buy them, shops to go to, and other essential rod bearing daily briefings! Why else do you think I change my rod bearings with every oil change?

Bro, you need to be more careful.

You're supposed to change rod bearings between oil changes, best practice is with each time you get gas.

Why yes of course they can...but you have to get the special titanium rod bearings that are specifically designed by midget clown hookers in an undisclosed location somewhere in San Francisco...

Are you kidding me? You are joking, right? I've been scrimping and saving for my Chiron next year...This will put a dent in the delivery date...but I can always drive the Veyron if necessary...
Thanks for the tip!

Can't disclose that top secret information here on a public forum...suffice to say that three of them fit side by side in the trunk of an e90 M3

Okay so getting back on topic....
The real reason they can't sell those cool "L" hats is because Ash Ketchum from Pokémon would sue for copyright infringement.

Do you really want this guy designing the new Lexus RCF?

+1

Coming in this morning I had some working van speed in the other direction so he could turn in front of me coming down a particular drive. After driving faster than a formula 1 to get in front of me, he slooooowed down to a bit under the speed limit.

A bit frustrating, as this is one of the roads I usually get joy driving on in the morning to work, but what can one do? I just upped the volume on the speakers and let the music soothe. Why get angry? At the end of the day, I'll still be the one in an M3.

OP, I would not be concerned with what goes through the minds of LOLexus owners.
