    Usually when you talk about high-end automobiles, performance and luxury are the key ingredients with fuel economy an afterthought.

    Not so with the 2009 Lexus GS 450h, the world's only hybrid performance luxury sedan, starting at $62,500.

    Oh! When you spoke of gas guzzlin' Lexus hybrids, I thought you were talking about a REAL guzzlin' land barge ... makes the 400h look like a bargain

    Why not the Camry hybrid--for half the price? With cars undergoing a paradigm change, you have to wonder about the future of the high-end luxury cars.

    Wow, never seen an IS-F in that colour before. I do love its black/white interior.
