People get it b/c it's a new looking car w/ many updates and improved features. The IS has improved in steering feel and handling compare to the older 2nd Gen. The only thing that I don't like is the IS f-sport grill which really look like predator face. This red RC concept has better looking grill pattern for the top portion compare to IS fsport's grill, but the bottom portion below the mustache for some reason it spread out too wide. Don't know what it look like ?! |

4 Series looks boring compared to this. This also has better general shape, just wish the overhangs were shorter, but other than that this is the best looking car in class. RC-F with NA 5.0l V8 is going to be a monster, like the predator face, intimidates the conservative boring Germans.

Very bold design. I like it from certain angles and really dislike it from others. It might grow on me over time, but not sure yet.

Another of those cars that you hate immediately or hate but it grows over time or like of course. Spindle grill and Lexus Badge are obnoxiously big which I don't like. I think it does look good from the side view though. Can't say I like or hate just yet. It does make a bold statement. I wanna test drive this like the IS. New IS is ugly imo but I found it a really balanced car so maybe this will to?

If I absolutely had to have a Lexus, I'd definitely want this one over any of their other cars. That being said, I don't like that front end at all. I agree, the car looks amazing from the side.

if you guys could drive the four door in F sport trim with sport + mode you wouldn't mind the grill.

Interesting, lets see how this car plays out. Looks production ready, will be waiting for the road tests. |

So this is the new "Supra" or is this another model entirely?
