wowza, 17th and 30th! i bet that aston martin in the bottom picture is jealous
this is going to be the 2nd Lexus to ever have the logo not on the grille but on the hood. previous one was the previous generation ES330
The original SC had the logo on the front bumper. Also the 98-era ES 300 had the logo on the hood.
Actually the ES had the logo on the hood from ‘92-06 it looks like if you check the database

WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lexus is the 10th
go on lexus
but what about the second car???
so i have questions
1)which engine ‘ll be in the production line
the 4.8L 500hp or the 5.0L 600hp???
2)is their any idea on if we ‘ll see any of those engines in other lexus line up let’s say the next forth coming GS-F???
:o woops guess i need to pay more attention i dont know why the SC slipped my mind
6.0L or more 600 hp.
PS if somebody can explain the difference between bhp and hp?
“Brake horsepower (abbreviated bhp) is the measure of an engine’s horsepower without the loss in power caused by the gearbox, generator, differential, water pump, and other auxiliary components such as alternator, power steering pump, muffled exhaust system, etc.”
- Wikipedia
Basically, it’s the engine horsepower, not the car’s horsepower. At least, that’s how I understand it.
@mtema99: Hard to really answer these questions—the LFA is powered by a Toyota V10 that hasn’t been seen in any vehicle yet. Estimates are around 550hp for the LFA.
Once the V10 is developed, I expect it could make its way into an LS-F, and even a GS-F or SC-F.
i get it. thanks!
