1- It looks like a Mazda.

2- It follows the ES trend of getting bigger and bigger.

3- THAT won't sell, i doubt it'll show up in that form, if it does it won't stick around. C'mon.... Lexus wouldn't do that to us.......................

well i've been told that the new IS is supposed to be basically a baby GS. it is only bigger then the current IS by an inch or 2.

we will just have to see if it pans out the way we hope.

I emailed this thread to my friend who is a Lexus employee who has seen the new IS several times and he said it is very close to the new IS

The new IS will be at the 2005 Detroit auto show
