I'd say they did a pretty good job in translating from concept to reality.

Did they lower this one? If not that has a nice stance for oem!

Looks crazy bulky.

Exterior kinda reminds me of a 4-door tC.

However, those gauges...

Put them in the FT86!!!

Yes please, keep it simple (temp) (tach) (speed) (gas) but love the interior details; alcantara headliner, perforated seats, dual stitched dash and leather shiftknob/boot!

Love the interior...dislike the 'rolex' like clock. Keep that digital.

I love it, although the only thing i would change is increase the RPM's font and maybe a faux-carbon background ala Type R models? that'd look sweet

Also, i cant believe no one has said this, if his is anything to go by with the whole concept to production, things look promising for the FT86!!

God no! That was one thing I thought made the Type look cheap was the "carbon fiber look" around the gauges and around the temp controls.

Yeah, it indeed looks promising. From the pre-production to the final model, I'm expecting more front and rear changes, hopefully for the better.

It's funny b/c there was an old thread about the LF-Ghs concept where I bashed on the huge open grill and actually covered it up. Good to see that they sort of did that one the final GS.

Highly unlikely IMO.

A 4.5-5L V8 with an Eaton blower would be a much better bet.

Supercharged GS 350 F Sport Joins Lexus SEMA Show Lineup

Quote:

Joining the LS 460 F Sport will be a custom GS 350 F Sport from VIP Auto Salon featuring 20-inch Vossen CV7 wheels. The luxury sedan will be outfitted with a Wald International Aero package and gets a boost in power from an A’PEXi CG SPL custom supercharger kit. A set of RS*R Super i coilovers gives it a whole new stance while a set of Brembo High Performance GT brakes ensures it stops on a dime.
