Doubt it, they would of put it in the LC500 first.
More likely same engines as the LC - V6 hybrid and the old 5.0 V8.

From what I've read, I believe the new Lexus LS will be unveiled at 0830 EST on Monday.

Great find!

Looks like Toyota is going to have a big day tomorrow, LS and Camry both getting revealed.

(on a side note) I am willing to be there will be a leak tonight of either or perhaps both cars.

This year, the start of the D.C. show is not overlapping the tail end of the Detroit Show like it sometimes does. So, since there's a couple of days in between the end of the Detroit show and the start of this one, you just might (?) be able to see it locally here, if they have time to bring it down and set it up. I wouldn't bet the farm on it, though......the Detroit and/or L.A. shows almost always get first-pick on new displays, unless they are introduced later in the spring at the April New York show.

Come on...you guys demanding pictures can wait one more night, can't you LOL? It's probably going to be unveiled to the press tomorrow morning (if it wasn't secretly unveiled today)...and you can bet the farm there will be a lot of cameras there.

Haha. I'm pretty sure my friend wants to keep his job and I want to keep his friendship so I let those fade off into the Snapchat black hole. My initial reaction to it was "not my style" but you'll know when this car has arrived. Which is a good thing. Didn't get to see the interior. Tomorrow will be great!
