Those rear tires looks wide, looks like a 275s!

Here is the pic of the coupe inside the garage next to a GS, possibly GS-F, with the same quad stacked exhaust. This coupe might be based on the GS chasit after all.

They honored the LF-CC concept:

Looks good. Aggressive front, widebody. Might look better than the 4 series.

I'm glad they did away with the downward slanting taillight gash from the sedan. That thing looks awkward from the side angle. I hope they keep these tails. Looks more balanced.
Would be nice if they made it a hatchback

Looks good... maybe can replace my G37 coupe which replaced (still have) my 330i. RC350 anyway if not the F.

The headlights look bigger than the IS and coupe concept.

Default Lexus GS F Prototype Spotted!



See the photo above? At first glance, it looks to be another spy shot of the recently spotted RC F prototype, but zoom in on the right side of the image and it appears a Lexus GS F is also in the garage:



Just like the current IS F and the new RC F prototype, this GS is equipped with stacked exhausts — while a high performance version of the GS been kicking around for quite some time, this photo and the recent GS F trademark would suggest it’s more than just rumor.

Hard to believe, but today may have revealed two new F models.

Holy ****!!!! Finally a LEXUS COUPE

Last month when i attended the Concourse d'elegance car show in Greenwich, they had the new IS featured. I asked the Lexus rep about the coupe version - he said the next coupe to come will be GS BASED. The IS coupe would come later. I asked him again and he was pretty admant that it would be based on the GS!
