Computer prevents the car from pitching forward during hard braking.
Least favorite feature:
Fit could be better - occasional vibrating noise from front passenger seat area.
Advice to buyer:
I drove a 2004 Lexus LS 430 and did not buy the car because it looks frompy and there are so many on the road. It performed well but did not excite me. Try the Infinity Q45 before you by a bimmer, caddy, Lexus, or BMW. You won't be disappointed.
Detailed review:
Firmly planted on the road yet never a harsh drive. The car accelerates so smoothly you don't realize that you are at 70 in a few seconds. The engine is extremely quiet and wind noise is less than a Lexus according to some reviews. You are surrounded by American/Japanese-like luxury with the handling of a high end german car with Italian-like styling that does not draw attention to the owner like other high-end cars. It's in a class by itself.
