Bad move on Toyota by giving the Toyo branded cars the spindle grille look too.

Lexus Poland has a pre-sales site up, first corporate site I've seen with the refreshed GS. Maybe the most interesting thing is the exterior color demo.

Yea Compared the Inward swooping fog lamps on the camry XLE and the front glamour shots of the new GS. Awfully close. Would I mistake either vehicle no, but those who can recognize design elements can see the camry front and new GS front being similar

I'm going to the LA auto show next Saturday and I'll take different photos from every angle and try to make this car looks better. This car will be there along with the GSF right? It better be.. or else I'm excited for nothing.

Saying design elements may be similar and saying that "it looks like an overpriced Camry" are different statements entirely.

The Camry is a Front Wheel Drive platform : Toyota K platform. This FWD platform is shared by the Camry, Avalon and Lexus ES and Lexus RX.
The GS sits on a dedicated RWD platform, the new N platform. Only one other car shares the new N platform with the GS, its smaller brother the Lexus IS.
Currently NO Toyota model shares a platform with the GS. Why do you think the GS is appreciably more expensive than the ES despite being about the same size? The ES enjoys considerable economy of scale in driving down its production costs.

To be fair, he never said that the Camry was the GS. He said the GS LOOKED like an overpriced Camry.
