I assume there's some as-yet unannounced passenger-side infotainment system. Can anyone at NAIAS fill anything in on that?

It's really lost a lot of class compared to previous LS series cars. So many useless style lines on the grill, body and especially the dash. It looks a bit cheap. I guess Lexus designers want youth appeal (as if the IS products weren't enough). BMW tried this a while ago and alienated customers. Remember the BMW 7-Series sedan with the trunk they called the "Bangle Butt" after the designer? They had to smooth out the creases and corners to get 7 series buyers back. Maybe "LS" now stands for "Line Style"

I like most of the photos. But for me, the photo of the undercarriage is a work of art and brings back memories of advertisements of the original LS.

I missed that one! I'd actually like a poster of it, it's true mechanical art.

"Community"?! It's just another forum. I know some of you just worship Lexus no matter what, but that's not what makes a genuine discussion forum.
