  1. The is is pretty fast. You guys must drive like your grandmas.
  2. Agreed!!! The PWR mode does a fine job of “assuming” what you are going to do next. Try breaking suddenly from 70mph after a sustained romp at 70mph (where legal). Transmission will normally drop and hold waiting for you to hit the accelerator to return to your original speed. They did a great job of observing how drivers act, where the transmission should be in a variety of scenarios, and then programming this mode around them. And it learns from the driver as well???::: “…The ECT-i computer also has a limited ability to adjust for transmission wear and to learn and respond to a person's driving behaviour. (based on the resulting engine input conditions).” But that aside, the greatest feature of the PWR mode is that it holds the engine within the sweet spot of its power curve. Meaning, we don’t have to wait for the transmission to downshift to the optimum gear to deliver the desired power (response) at the current speed. Great discussion here: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...c=46602&hl= Ya the ECT makes a night and day diff
