radioman is right. My commute is 16kms each way and there's heavy stop and go traffic during rush hour. It takes a lot of effort to drive and it gets tiring (loud exhaust, shifting, heaving steering, very stiff suspension), I worry about where to park, there's no space for stuff or people, I'm OCD about the paint and others.
The Lexus is so smooth and relaxing. Its very easy to drive. Steering is very light, the suspension is like a cloud, its very quiet inside. I can park it anywhere and I don't care as much if it gets dirty or even if someone scratches it or dings it. Its a very liberating feeling.
Don't get me wrong the Porsche is so much fun to drive when its sunny out and I'm not driving to and from work in traffic.
