Default 2006 Lexus IS spy pic (how did they keep it under wraps so long)

Here are new pics of possibly the next IS. And give MUCHO credit to Lexus, there have been NO LEAKS. Amazing, its one month before its debut and nothing truly 100% reliable. Amazing...




I like, very nice.

The second pic looks like a little mix of Acura TL and BMW 3-series. The rear end of the last pic looks like a Mazda RX-8.

I have to agree, it does resemble the shape of the tC but overall I really like it. It will give the 3 series a push for money knowing how the new 3 series look like. I would like to see more pics though.

Didn't Lexus say that the new GS will start a design trend for upcoming Lexus models?
