So Lexus just Tweeted an info page on the new LS, which is this: http://www.lexus.com/concept/LS/?cid=sf59682137+sf59682137

And that page says "Coming Fall 2017". So now I'm confused about when we'll actually be able to drive the thing, but I certainly hope it's this fall instead of this winter.

Wow. Great Finds! It clearly is an F Sport embelem if you look close enough. It also can't be the F embelem since you can also see the letters saying SPORT below the F.

I know it is just the camo but I like how the taillights and the have the chrome trim blacked out. Hopefully that is how it will look on the production LS F. Looks very aggressive.

Also, where did you find those photos? Are their any other shots and angles?

It's already been revealed that the TTV6 is a Dynamic Force engine rather than a 2GR extension (and didn't @Carmaker1 give the engine code for it already?). It's great to have some numbers backing all that up though.
Yes, hence my comment "building on the conversation in page 4 of this thread" which is where Carmaker1 revealed the engine code.

Joaquin, not surprising about the thermal efficiency. I'm sure you recall news like this

Really excited to see the MPG ratings on all the new engines.

LS F Sport???

Look at the photo below. Is there a F Sport emblem on the front fender? Since some of us have thought there will be no F Sport anymore, I'm just curious.

The lack of visible exhaust outlets in the rear bumper seems to indicate that this may be the LS500h.

It could very likely be an LS500h F-Sport.
