I cannot believe Lexus is going to continue this theme with the ugly hybrid grill. Did Lexus just hire the grill designer from Acura ?

Yeah but why change it at all, the old grill looks fine.

Yeah I have no interest in it but its not ugly, that would be going way overboard

It seems like the guy who designed the Avalon's grill, also designed the new grills for Lexus' "HYDRID" models!!!
DON'T FIX IT IF IT AIN'T BROKEN!!!

Of all the things that I could think of for Lexus to change/improve on the GS 450h, the front grill did not make my list...

agree, the ls600hl new grille is just horrible, but this one isn't that much better

Well, if you don't like the grill, you can get an aftermarket one

Yes it looks totally like the avalon's grille. Makes the Ls600hl look like an avalon from the front. Totally ugly.
I am really worried that Lexus is going back to its old ways of making excellent but unattractive cars. The whole L-Finesse line was excellent.
