    Uncle most people who drove luxury version without fsport says the car tend to be floppy and rolling around a lot more due to softer suspension compare to sportier fsport. With no fsport for the new rx 2023, do you think the car can take cornering & driving better with fsport suspension or maybe lexus has done tweaks enough to make this luxury version without fsport mountain driving comfortable for speed drivers?
