Wow, a bit weird, showing the challenge of styling bulky retractable hardtops.

Default Lexus IS250c @ LA Auto Show Press Day

Here are a few pics I took from Wednesday Press Day. The top operates pretty quickly. Seeing this car in person is a whole different story. For those who thought this car looked awkward in pics...think again. More pics to come...

Cool Ryan!

Got any more shots of the rear and rear 3/4th views?

I think those angles are what people are concerned the most...

The rear is bulky.

I still like it as my favorite true-4-seater hardtop convertible...

Looks pretty good, but with a few mods, I bet it can look really hot.

I guess there's no substitute for seeing it in person, I do hope it looks better in person.
