Then would you mind just posting the pic and not linking to that other site that the admin obviously don't want you to?

Doesn't seem to have much road presence. And the similarities in the rear with that Sienna ahead of it isn't helping either.

i have seen it in person at the auto show and it is sick. Look around for pics- LED projector headlights and a gorgeous interior. I'd take it over the 7 series or s class.

Oh and I got pulled over right at that ramp for going 99 in a 55 playing with my friend in his 03 maxima

I was blown away by the interior, leather and wood everywhere. It was like a Maybach redux. And that was just from looking at it on a pedestal, can't imagine what it would feel like to sit in it next year.

Aside from the LED headlights, the exterior was pretty ho-hum considering the recently released S-Class.

Why is Toyota sticking that taillight design on every single car it is coming out with?

I feel like it's lacking presence. The older LS was more imposing and inspiring than this one from the rear. I hope the rest of the car appears better in person...

It's a huge car yet proportionate (except for the wheels). I like it. The tail lights, in this iteration, reminds me of those on the 03-04 Caddy Seville. Still like it. Can't wait to see it in person.

FYI for you atlanta people- If you are ever in the alpharetta area- lexus has a facillity off of north point parkway, they usually have the unreleased cars there for testing. I saw the new IS and ES on Northpoint before they were even out. That's probly where this one was headed to.

That car will hit its mark, Lexus is going to sell a ton of them.

The car above needs bigger shoes, other than that the color is kind of boring.

Lexus probably figured out that fancy tails don't sell cars. MOst people who buy this car will be for something other than looks.

There is a reason why they are taking market share.

Anyone seeing major negative camber in the first high res pic? Are they planning on putting bigger wheels on stock? Thats really all it's missing i think...

Now where'd those pics of the black LS come from? Looks nicer in black, but I still don't think it's as stunning as the new S-Class from the outside.
