Not sure if this is a repost didnt see any threads when i searched but here it is. Even has a side pre colision system and a rear seat airbag. It also has the reclining seat like the executive class LS460.

I like the tail lights. They stood out nicely. Not liking the general shape of it.

Probably. It's a Japan only car and designed specific for the Japanese market.

LS430/Genesis Front, US spec camry on the side.

overall the side needs a crease or two but otherwise a pretty good looking car that should replace the avalon

It looks great inside and out. But, it is definitely designed for the Japanese market and Japanese tastes, hence it will never be exported. I do believe that some of these JDM vehicles find their way into Taiwan and a few select Asian markets, though. Somebody should please correct me if I am wrong.

Looks good. 20 years from now all cars are going to look the same at the rate cars are homogenizing.
