Original model Q45 reviews

[gymbeau]

Hi. Does anyone know where some vintage print reviews of the first generation Q45 can be found online?

I remember Car and Driver did a comparo in, I think, Dec. '89 of the first Q, LS400, BMW and more (though I can't find it online), and there must have been others. I'd like to peruse a couple and print them out for my records (and bragging, undoubtedly).

Also, is there any place where complete specs are available? I couldn't find such in the owner's manual and want to find out as much about the car as possible - suspension, steeting, brakes, etc. etc.

Thanks!

There is also a follow-on article regarding the LS vs. Q.

It was a done several months after the original review and they picked the Q as the best of class. I'll see if I can dig that one up.

When I get to work on Monday, I can scan the original ad for the Q45 from 1990, "Ten Best In The World" is what it reads, and on the other side is a Road and Track stat sheet.
