It's true that the market is rather small for this type of vehicle, which is why I hope the next SC will be larger and a bit more LS-like in its features.

Perfect job, but i coupe needs some aggressive touches
Sporty wheels, complete spoilers sets, lowering and sharper angle from front and smooth air circulation angel.

I think I'm missing something.....because all I see is the regular 4-door LS.....

Not bad, but I think a LS coupe, if they were to make one(which I highly doubt), should look a lot more different from the sedan than that. It should have it's own body style.

Well since the LS coupe doesn't exist (yet), it can be as good or bad as we want it to be.

I do have to say the new CL looks great. I was not a fan of the previous design, particularly the aft pillars, but the redesign looks great. Funny thing is, if you see some reviews, suck as MSN Cars UK, they say the CL is very nice and luxurious if a bit uninvolving and unexciting...sort of like some criticisms of Lexus:

Now I actually grew to like the S-class sedan MORE than the CL-class coupe (it was the other way around before), the front of the CL-class looks rather blah to me after I've seen it on the road many times, the rear end isn't that great either, I like the side view though . . .

CL Design is much sexy than the LS coupe. But guess what i raced a CL 500 Model 2003 from 0- 240 Km/h. I smoked the guy , with maybe 0.5 metres LOL.

Looks good; I'd buy it in a heartbeat... I've always been a Coupe fan. Looks much nicer than a MB.

Very nice photoshop, I actually like the look quite a bit. Obviously the trunk and c-pillar area would be revised to make the profile more sleek, but this looks really nice. Good job!

For a long time I was hoping Lexus would come out with a non-convertible coupe, and I still would if the LF-A weren't in the works.
