The new headlights look like they're shedding tears and the tears are being blown back from the wind.

The new face just looks like the car is angry with it's scowl and shedding tears.

With that big accelerator pedal recall & scandal, the car's looks probably symbolize how Toyota is feeling?

No pics of the 350 ?
^^ The only thing different will be the badge in the trunk..

Also, based on the Utlrasonic Blue 2.0 GS 200t - F Sport, that Lexus Western area posted..

I am pretty sure USA, Canada & some select other regions will have Fog Lights deleted to keep the price competitive & sport package similarities between other car makers in the same segment...

Not sure. The original fascia design caught my eye from the beginning and I'm still getting over it. I didn't lease this car, so I will take my time.

If us version comes with this headlight I could see an early upgrade coming for me. UW looks really nice with this configuration. 15 looks outdated now. I think f sport looks better the f version. Should never doubt Lexus.

The F Sport is starting to grow on me. I like the new F Sport rims. I liked the rims on my '13 F Sport (mainly the darker color) but thought they were pretty mundane style-wise. The front isn't that bad. At least they made the grill one solid piece.

The non- F Sport, on the other hand, way too busy in front with old LS rims.

I'd be lying if I said the F-Sport front doesn't look good.
Better than the F IMO.

F-Sport


F

Def not a fan of the huge, gaping brake ducts (?) at the bottom right and left of the front bumper. I even see some BMW models sporting this and it is not appealing at all.

what do you guys think?

Would love it if they keep the fog lights in the F-sport for the US model.

Those brake ducts aren't supposed to be appealing, they're supposed to cool the brakes.

In those pics I vastly prefer the GS-F.

Yes I hope I'm wrong... But history will speak for itself soon

Better put Nigel Parts on high alert in case they don't.

The Turbo's rear sitting kinda high. Making room for the "Family Flush" perhaps?

The new GS450h is the most lustworthy thing ever.

I can't wait to see the facelifted GS450h in F-Sport trim. Those tri-led are incredibly sexy.
