Never heard of it, so I looked at the Lexus site pix - that's the ugliest front grill I've ever seen.

The trunk to rear window looks weird, can't tell if it's just a reflection. Also the wheels look like they should be 1 size bigger. Hmm

I don't understand how a country with some of the best car designers around, can constantly ignore what they're doing and push something that looks like a gasping carp off the end of the assembly line and be so damn proud of it??? I don't know maybe it's just me.... I can't see this having broad appeal.

If you took the back of this and the front of the LFA and whapped them together you might have something.

Thanks for the links...

That front end is pretty bad to me...no wonder they do not show it much. I guess it depends on how you feel about the new Lexus grill that is pretty much across most of their vehicles now. My wife loves it...I dislike it (I would say hate, but no car deserves that harshness). The GT3 race car is okay though...maybe they should just sell that instead

Ugly and bloated, just like all the new Lexi. Then again, it might look slightly better in person than in pictures (camera gains you 500lbs), just like all the new Lexi.
