Message	My first reaction when I saw the fans is that Lexus was using them for enhanced traction. Many years ago Road & Track did an article on using fans to improve cornering traction via fans that would literally suck the air out and create a vacuum - in effect sucking the car towards the ground. I don't think that's what these fans are really for - perhaps those are remote-mounted radiators?
