Quote: My guess is the 4GS will be smaller and lighter (with the option of a four or small six cylinder). That seems to be the theme of most manufacturers. CAFE standards going up significantly the next few years. Probably see a hybrid during its second year. I'm just waiting for one of the luxury brands to embrace supercharging. Put an Eaton or Paxton on a four cylinder and you'll have 260+ hp while meeting CAFE requirements.
doesn't look smaller to me

Seems as though they closed that gap on the wheels, but still needs some work, really want it now.

Found this today on this sitehttp://www.theophiluschin.com/?p=3212, a photoshop of what will make it to production, don't mind it but I think they will keep the concept rims as they look really nice and I think they would keep the LED fogs.

^^I really like the back of this car, but the front has got to go. The front to me looks a lot like a 2008/09 Hyundai Sonata. Doesn't seem like the back will change much, but who knows.

The concept version is really growing on me now that I look at it more and more.

Looks bland to me. Just like any other car.

The specs on the concept show the wheelbase is the same but it got taller, wider, longer.

For real. I get a strong Acura vibe from the front. Not doing anything for me.

But then, it took me years to warm to the 3GS and now I love it.

Nothing special here for me either, but I could live with it.

I am kinda liking the look of the A7, and the electronics package there is very nice.

Not coupe-shaped enough. I was expecting a sexier design for the 4GS. I hope this isn't how it looks.

My only issue is the front, I really want that grill and front to make it to production even though it probably wont.

I also miss the rocker panel moulding and chrome accent. Looks a little plain. I think I may go with the new 5 series if this is the 4GS or just keep my 3GS.

www.lexus.com.hk it will be launch in august 2011 i think current GS onwers should wait until the Official 4GS is at one Autoshow with Pics then you can decided to change.But i have to Admit the concept LF-GH is too sick the only that must change slighty is the rear taillight or just leave exterior the same as the concept.

Looks likely the GS trademark quad headlights will be gone... Already lost rear quads with 3GS....

Lexzam, although Lexus took away the quad tails, when lit at night, it has the quad affect.
