GS is one of them hopefully.

Looks like 3.5 V6 will be carry over - the rest really is just cosmetic changes, most of which would be very minor except for the new giant predator grill that will replace the current front end.

Maybe GSF pricing will be revealed and order guide.......although i think the car lost any momentum it had already.

Safe bet would be the LX and GS, both of which we have seen. The GS will likely just get the updated grill, headlights, and rear lights as seen on the GSF

They're not going to drop an all new model at Pebble Beach...so we're not going to see the new LS for instance.

Yes safe bet is the LX and GS. But perhaps CT and GS. LX would be for an international release.

Yes, Facelift was last year. It should be due for a redesign a year after Prius is released.

Right...so we're not going to see anything at Pebble Beach for the CT, as its not due for a major or minor refresh.

They're not going to release an all new car at Pebble Beach. That will be done at a major auto show. That's why I say refresh LX and GS.
