Toyota Mark X...What the TSX and TL should have been
Take a look at this video. The first 45 seconds show enough, but the rest has a lot of detail. I'm no fan of Toyota, but this car is very nice. The body lines, interior, etc... Although the seats look so-so, I'd hit it. The size relationship is about that of the 3G TL or current TSX.

It's nothing like the Camry. It's a RWD Japanese only sedan. I would take this over a TSX/TL if they can tune the suspension and steering feel properly.

I've seen Best Motoring videos of the Mark X. The new Mark X's platform is carried over from the previous gen Mark X, and that car shares a lot of components with the Lexus GS.
From what I've saw/read, the Mark X drives similarly to the Lexus IS. On the Tsukuba test track, it can't keep up with the G37 and the 335i. The JDM Legacy GT would smoke it too.

It's not really a performance car, with a 2.5L and VVTI, no turbo. But it's just that in that size / segment here, it's that and the LGT / Honda Inspire (USDM Accord)/Nissan Skyline (G37 but with a 2.5L JDM only). They all run in the $30K - 40 K range (the Skyline in 370 trim is a shade north of $40K here).
Of that group, only the Honda is FWD. The LGT is AWD, while the Skyline has it as an option.

I swear as I watched the video, I thought the car looked like a mutation among an IS, a Corolla, and a Sonata.
