I'm a little dissapointed. That looks very bland and uninspiring. Almost like a Camry Solara convertible from some angles. I wish Lexus would take more risks with design.

Amazing how color can juice up the car. This red shows the car hundred times better than other silverish color. Can't wait for the pics from the floor.

the front bumper looks updated somewhat, more aggressive. For a convertible it looks hot, but convertibles dont do much for me

The best implementation of F1 nose yet, even with revised bumper.

All we are missing is news on an SC/IS Coupe-Convertible and GX.

Interior still does not look close to anything production imho, but I actually think this convertible version looks more cool than the coupe version, somehow the nose is looking less weird to me now.

I cannot believe how good that car looks. I am blown. Didn't expect it to flow so well.

Andrew, I think the interior is more production ready than we think.
