This gotta stop somehow.

So let's see.

New LS looks like new Camry.
And they say new LS is identical to the BMW 7 series.
So, New Camry is pretty close to the 7 series.

Good job toyota!.

Let me rephrase that to show what I meant to say. BMW's look similar to BMWs and Mercedes look similar to Mercedes cars but they are each the same brand. I wasn't comparing Mercedes to BMW but each of their cars to themselves.

That is my point. I'm not comparing one brand of cars to another. All I'm saying is keep it consistent. Just like how everyone including you jumped on cars like the RL and M35/45 for looking like this or looking like that when they first came out, the same can be done for the LS. I don't mind if one takes a different side of the fence. Just stay consistent. if you aree going to make fun of other cars for doing it because they are popular cars to hate here on CL do it for every car including Lexus when they are in the same boat. Either that for stop saying those other cars look like the lower model cars all together. Judge them on their own merits. Whichever way you choose just judge them all the same.
