Wow, thanks for the pics. I'm not crazy about the styling (very unorginal... you can see a lot of 5-series), but it should be a strong contender. I think it'll do well. :up

I don't see any 5 series (last gen or new). I see a lot of G35 and new Maxima.



I like this new Lexus though. :up :up
 
I like it. I think the styling is a little too like the new Maxima, which isn't a bad looking car IMO.
 
I'd buy one because I actually like the styling. I also like the fact they are (potentially) going to have a GS430 AWD. :D
 
I like it a lot, the enthusiast community hates it. Everyone hates the ES too but I love it so go figure lol. Lex must be doing something right, they've got plenty of best sellers...



Lexuses always look better in person also.



One thing though, its supposedly a 2006 not a 2005, which makes me wonder why it was released now. It wont be on sale until April 2005...



And the AWD GS430 looks like a no show, according to Lexus only the V6 GS330 will be AWD, the GS430 will remain RWD. The lack of a power upgrade has the enthusiasts pissy also...



All in all though I like the car, have to wait and see it in person though. I dont see any 5 series in it, but I do see some Maxima, and actually some Saab in the front end. What I see in the windows and the rear end is first gen GS300. Front headlights look like the first gen Lexus SC and I can see SC430 in the doors. And E Class? Dont see that at all.



I actually see the start of EVOLUTIONARY DESIGN for Lexus here...

What about the Camry? Supra?



Dude, the Camry is no styling marvel, its a decent grocery getter that is very reliable and that's it. The Supra WAS a good car, but the all new design of it is hideous--it looks like a beefed up Celica...



I'm talking about sheetmetal only, what Toyota does with their trucks speaks for itself over the last 20 years. The Corolla, Avalon, Solara?? Doesn't do a thing for me.

Yeah, after I posted that I kinda thought you might have meant looks only. In that case I would agree, and yes, the old Supra pretty much rules!
 
To blackcaraddict- theres a lot more to a car than sheetmetal. I dont think anyone would accuse Toyota of not knowing how to make a car. Continually excelling not only in reviews and dependability studies, but in sales.



Styling is subjective, but quality is not.
