i think you are right but does anyone know why lexus always puts about +.5 seconds?

the lexus site says 7.9 but numerous tests have supposedly shown 7.4 seconds and i've heard that lexus always puts about .5 more...

You have to take into consideration a variety of different conditions. Maybe the the grip was better, or they were at a lower altitude, and the weather was cooler, and the driver weighed less, and they had less gas in the car, and they had a car that was broken in better and the motor produced slightly better acceleration, and hp.

I think they do it though as more of an average than an exact number from the factory. Most report/reviews may make several 0-60 runs, and only report the best time as opposed the the average time which I think the factory goes by. That's only a guess though. I don't know how the factory actually arrives at thier numbers. I do know that they are undergoing a new more accurate system for measuring miles per gallon in advertising. So the sticker on the new car is going to reflect much closer to the real MPG's. I think Ford is already using it.

Is the RWD quicker than the AWD?

It certainly should be given it's considerably lighter, and it's not like either has enough power to have traction issues when launching.

Probably a full second quicker on dry pavement.
