Nice
Finally a glimpse of what is coming. I can live with that! Especially in a long wheel based version, that thing will look great. I think that we have to remember that the average LS buyer in the US is 62 years old, and if Lexus went completely over board with a too aggressive design, that it might scare off some of those buyers.
Rumors are the might unveil this thing in Tokyo in October, right? I can't wait. Once we see what it will really look like, I'll be slapping down my deposit. This car will be THE car in 2006, no doubt!

I don't believe any of the s h i t e drawings that come from Road and Track Magazine. They look too much like comic drawings. See the pic of what they thought the Cadillac STS was going to look like. As a former 1998 Cadillac STS owner, I prayed it would look like this but was disappointed when the real version came out.

Thanks for the article! However I don't think the LS will look like that at all. Looks like one of their artists sketched his thoughts based on the GS/IS and L-finesse.
The LS HAS to have horizontal slants on the grill, its a LS trademark. The wheels are taken from the LF-A. I can see the lower grill having 3 slots, or at least 2 side slots, like the revised SC/and the IS/GS.
That car is nice but the artists proportions are all wrong.
The did get the fact the new LS grill and clearly the L badge will continue to grow.

Enjoy!
So how will it have the same performance as a 604 Hp S65 AMG with 500 hp?
S55 Amg or maybe even S600 I can see.
