    That is pretty neat. Cars are getting smarter and smarter. I can see self driving cars in ten years.

    Wow. Takes some faith to let your $70K sedan back itself in so close to the car behind you.

    Pretty cool use of technology. I'd be more impressed though if it went out and bought its own fuel :)

    But they didn't bring it to the market. There's a BIG difference. Who knows,
    Lexus may regret this. I don't want that stuff on my cars.

    Pray Ferrari doesn't decide to add this to their cars.
