I'd go as far as saying Horrible. It does look more aggressive.. but not in an attractive way (like the GT-R for instance).

The have copied. Ridiculously so.

Benchmarking is not the same as copying. The first LS looks similar to the Benz of the time (the same one Lexus sent them back to the drawing board with) and It stops there. The latest GS has quite a few BMW ques though... Although it also shares many similarities in my eye with their previous cars, more than any other brands.

I admitted that 1991 Model look similar to S-class, but not a direct copy like Hyundai using very similar headlight to MB concept headlight and side profile. Well, if LS copied front design S-class, then E-class also copied quad-squared headlight from GS.
The LS is not the Crown. Never was. Just thought I should point that out.
