I know you are excited about this car, but your comment comes off pretty elitist.

Yes I can afford this car at 50-65k, but that does not change the fact that I still think it is ugly as shit - as shown.

Good taste or not, it is Personal opinion. I was saying if I was Lexus, I would only listen to my own customers, and don't really care about the people who do no business with me, who do not purchase my vehicles.

Again, Lexus has been selling more Vehicles than ever since the new Design Language. There is a Reason for that

I fully understand demographic based marketing and the voice of the customer.

I just did not like the assumptive question in your comment that those in this thread who do not like the design are not in thier target market.

I am but one voice in thier demographic that would not purchase this car based on its current design.

Maybe it was just poorly worded and I'm reading too much into it.

Honestly that lexus car reminds me of goatse.xs

gaping hole in your face.

davesrave · 06-13-2013, 09:44 PM

I like what I see, just not sure I'd want it bad enough to justify the purchase price.

Turbo V6, and I will not trade my IS250 for Stingray and join Lexus family again.

The predator face grows on you (well it did to me). Probably cuz the more you see it the more you get used to it.

Its not like its Lexus going crazy, they just took Audi's gaping maw and just pinched the middle.

The look is more striking, aggressive than past Lexus, but it doesn't have the same kind of 'elegance' I guess as the Audi. Probably cuz the wide open gaping maw look has been around forever, and it just looks kind of strange when someone decides to pinch it inwards at the center.

There isn't really much you can do with the old look as its so vanilla looking (inoffensive).

I think the other models tend to work better than the IS implementation (I think the RX has the best looking spindle grille look) But Im getting used to the IS implementation.

On that note I still want the ISF. But the interior on the new IS is light years better.

Perfectly put. The reason why RX sales has increased alot due to the new face lift. It is funny how you said they pinched it. It is true that they did so lol.

I like the IS too. I hope to see this new RC production models soon.

New supra? Close enough. Price would probably be in GTR territory

If it doesn't meet Euro 6 emissions, that engine is done.

Lame. N/A V8 has so much more character.
