a lot of negativity in here, I feel like once the production model rolls around and the critics praise it a lot of you will be like "oh yeah I'm getting one I had my eye on that for awhile"

kinda like what you did with the fr-s/brz.

Lexus: Fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.


It's sad because it's true.

Can any of you who criticize about Lexus afford a brand-new lexus ? Perhap they will think about your comments, if not they will listen to those one who Do buy their Lexus.

Looks very aggressive. Not a big fan of the Predator front grille, but not bad overall.

The front of it looks like a cow pusher on a train. What the heck.

Damn Lexus, you're start to become like Acura with your front end looking the same across all models.

Japanese luxury car dept, you guys are killing us! Infiniti with all Q's, Acura with the same boring front and now Lexus with the Predator grille.

Remember how the updated MR2 and Supra were supposed to come out for years?

Are you implying that those who cannot afford this car somehow do not have good taste in car designs, or that thier opinions do not matter?

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
