World Exclusive-First picture of 2004 Lexus LS430

the front bumpers are almost exactly the same??? i definitely think photoshop... and to BLexACK LS, someone can photoshop a picture, then put it into a magazine.... Not all the pictures in those little small magazines are true. They are like tabloids.... Car and Driver is one of the magazines that you can trust to show you good stuff. also, it is possible to add reflections like that... second, some things i noticed are that the side mirrors are exactly the same, and with lexus going to the style of door handle now where you can wrap your hand around the handle and pull it, instead of the conventional style of lifting, this new lex has audi handles.... lol im just looking for ways to make it audi. i'll chop the two later and see

Maybe they are going with the lines of the SC430 as it looks like it a bit the VW one that is.
I must say i would rather have the VW look a like it looks much more like a luxury car ?
i did speak to some one quite high in lexus over here and he had only seen a artists impression of the car so may be the Green is the one?

Okay, from my understanding the next LS will be a S/7 killer, going head to head with them period. Rumors are a STANDARD V-12 for like 80k, totally price-cutting the other 2. It will be larger in exterior dimensions for a change, not just a larger wheelbase.
The 2004 will be a FACELIFT and new rear, no major change. The car is selling well still. It may get a HP bump. Look for a rearview camera ala RX

My favorite LS is the 98 style.. I like the new 430 because it's new - but I still like the older looks better. The green concept in this thread is horrible.. The other one DOES look a lot like a VW or Audi.. That's what I thought when I saw it - BUT - it's still better than that green one...

2004, 2006/7 LS
Any theories as to when the LS will get AWD? Some say with the 2004 facelift...but personally I'm guessing model year 2005.
Per a post on edmunds.com, the June Automobile magazine claims the next-gen LS will be fall of 2006 (i.e. model year 2007). Anyone agree/disagree?

It's amazing to see in retrospect, how accurate someone's past predictions were. Syswei was right about the '07 LS.
