2009 Lexus GS 450h 0 60 perfomance

I recorded a time of 5.9 seconds to 60mph as my friends took the car for a spin. He found a flat, long stretch of road, and simply floored it...and it is quick. The interior however does not complement its brilliant performance. It is very chunky inside, and is made of far too much 'plastic' material. Very confortable seats, and the rear view camera - to assist with parking - is fun, although it was anoying everytime it was bleeping. One thing I have established is that it is not suited to a chauffeurs car, it is too sporty. Switch the suspension to 'Sport' and it will blow you away. Performance figures specifications
