lexus does not need this car.
bad move for lexus' image.

this should stay as a toyota.

that drawing is wack. RX headlights combined with IS grille.
nothing about that says "lexus".

I've seen more exciting toaster oven designs. Hopefully that's not how it will be.

Don't you believe everything you read! So that means I wasted about $10 bucks just so I could scan this pic and show you guys!

Fugly. But it might do okay in Japan and the rest of Asia where boxes with premium interiors seem to do alright. I doubt it would help the Lexus brand in any of its current markets, however. Is Lexus still having problems battling the Germans for perception on its home turf?

On the topic of other luxury hybrids. I read that the S class hybrid will only have a 270 HP V6 (the 3.5L I presume, DI that thing already and catch up) and then a 20 HP electric motor (weak). Im not too optomistic of this thing outshining the LS600h, considering that the E350 only gets 17/24 and its a lighter vehicle than the S class.
