That got to be one of the best looking design concept vehicles I have ever seen. Loos like I will be staying with lexus in the future if they keep putting out quality design and advanced features with their signature insane reliability

This one takes it a step further and adds Chrysler to the mix
VERY TYPICAL COMMENT ABOUT KOREAN DESIGNER ONLY MAKING CRAPPY HYUNDAIS... HOWEVER THIS DESIGN DOES SUCK... IS THIS A REAL LEXUS DESIGNER???

it really is sad to see a korean name on that picture.

a sad day for all of us koreans

just like when that god awful movie Dragon Wars came to america.

I actually went into hiding so I wouldn't be targeted by movie goers.

I also told everyone I knew not to watch it.

I just hope they really fix it up (like change it 98%) when it comes to final design.

Aside from the front end and headlight treatment I think it is a very nice looking concept, do people honestly think a 3rd Gen GS looks better then this concept? I don't see why it is getting bashed so much, like I said a cleaned up front end and lower improved headlight treatment and this would be a fantastic looking car and much nicer and stand out more then a ES, GS, or LS or really anything in its segment.

FWIW, a Japanese man designed the Ferrari Enzo and this...A Japanese man also designed the Viper.



Its an interesting world we now live in, where a companies designer might not be from that country.

I don't see what him being Korean has anything to do with it. Its not a great concept but AMERICANS made this Acura crap.
