I hope that is not gonna be the toyota version of the GS...just like camry and es, avalon and ls, land crusier and lx...etc

Seems to be the same size and all....I hope the next GS doesn't look like that!

I think I'm going to throw up, first the SC430 now this? Next thing you know the GS will be the size of a frickin Lincoln Continental with white wall tires, fake touneu cover and some dayton's. What is it with that Kia-esque styling?

Are you serious? If I were an owner of a LS430, I would be pissed having you call it a rebadged Avalon. True, the ES and camry are nearly the same, and so is the LX470 and Land Cruiser, but the Avalon and LS430? I think you big tip off should be that one is front wheel drive and the other is real wheel drive. There is nothing shared between them, inside, outside, or even in SIZE! To me the Avalon is a stretched wheelbase Camry, with measurements and appearance similar to the GS...

Default ES 300??

It (scoop/Windsor?) looks more like a Camry rather than an ES300 to me. The new Motor Trend (or Road and Track - I get both, always mix them up) has drawings of the new Camry. Looks almost identical to the image you provided..

Side view styling looks almost identical to the new SC.

Well, here is mine....

I used to own a Lexus ES 300. But after it crapped out and turned into a health hazard, I decided to stop being a snob, and went back to Toyota... After all. Lexus' are re-badged Toyota's right!

Here is my new baby..
