I'm waiting for the new IS and the new Infinity G as well.

Real ones? You can't. Everything published so far are guesses, artist renders, etc.

(other than the speculative shot of all the "new" front grills, one of which is the 3IS)

Aghaye Javahersaze gerami,

Lexus showed the front design of their future models in 2012 Geneva auto show and there is a fairly clear front shot of the 3IS on Car and Driver's website:

9 years for a redesign and they come up with that ugly POS? Terrible. I may stick with Acura, the seats in the Lexus have always sucked as well.

I agree not feeling the 3IS at all at this moment. I'll either keep my 2IS or get a 4GS if I have to upgrade.

Simply because of the size of the car, I think the spindle grill will look better on the GS than it will on the 3IS.
Either way, I'm waiting for some real shots to see how the 3IS turns out. You never know, might just blow away the competition like the 4GS is doing right now.

I'm waiting for the 3IS to come out before making my decision on whether to trade my 2011 IS250 for a new GS or IS. If I get another IS, I'll definitely be getting the 350.

The GS looks like *** also. Compare to 535 and it like comparing chicken **** to chicken salad.
