    Lexus LF-1 Limitless Concept Megathread [LF Coming in 2023?]

    I think the small clay model in this image from the Motor Trend article is quite interesting to look at. The right half is obviously the LF-1 while the left half is a bit different and seems more realistic with a horizontal headlamp module, toned down side air intake and a slit(?) for a license...

    An early design study for the LC?

    And as for the LS mockup, this magazine called "ę–°åž‹ćƒ¬ć‚Æć‚µć‚¹LSć®ć™ć¹ć¦" provides the whole design process of the LS (exteririor/interior) including these images by Carmaker1.

    An early design study for the LC?

    This mockup was shown as a pure design study at a year end meeting where the Lexus design studios around the globe exhibited their works of the year. Among the board of examiners was the former Lexus International president Tokuo Fukuichi, who was not very impressed with this. But he was shown...

    Toyota to Debut Next-generation Century at Tokyo Motor Show 2017

    The new gen Century's 3,090 mm wheelbase is exactly the same as that of the 4LS 600h L, so it's safe to assume that the NEW Toyota flagship uses the now-more-than-a-decade-old underpinning of the LAST gen LS, not the GA-L. The engine is basically the same as well I believe. But it's...

    Rumor: Lexus Moving Forward with Production City Car?

    TBH I think the LF-SA concept is one of the best looking Lexus vehicles (production vehicle included). Especially I really like the front end, one of the most successful application of the spindle grille IMO. So I just hope Lexus will stay close to the concept if they make it into production...

    5th Generation (2018+) Lexus LS 500 & LS 500h Megathread

    But Actually side air intake of the LS500 shown at NAIAS and the LS500h of upcoming Geneva Motor Show is slightly different. NAIAS version has a horizontal slat, and the Geneva version has mesh. Is this a indication that there will be a F Sport version? Or this simply differentiates ICE and...

    5th Generation (2018+) Lexus LS 500 & LS 500h Megathread

    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. and here is the F Sport emblem of the GS. the "normal" LS we've seen has nothing on the front fender.

    Mysterious Prototype

    I'm on the ES side too... And this is also said to be the next gen ES. from Burlappcar.com. I think the side mirror of this mysterious car is the same thing as the LC or 5LS, so this car is from Lexus IMO. Any thought?

    5th Generation (2018+) Lexus LS 500 & LS 500h Megathread

    Does anyone notice that the new LS's introduction page on the Lexus International site (unintentionally?) reveals a photo showing the backseat that is SLIGHTLY different from those of the LS500 at NAIAS or other auto show or on the official Lexus website. Take a look at the bottom right part of...

    Lexus Has Cancelled the GS Sedan

    And my thoughts on this article. The LS and the GS overlap with each other????? just because they both have the V6????? If TMC really thinks so, I have to say it is TOTALLY stupid. The LS and the GS each has its own distinctive character, price range is HUGELY different, and their customer...

    Lexus Has Cancelled the GS Sedan

    Sorry for being late but here is the (mostly) direct translation of the Mag-X on the ā€œdevelopment freezeā€ of the next gen GS. ( ) is my addition. ā€œIn the summer of 2015, Toyota decided to suspend the development of the S-FR which had been in development as a cheaper version of the 86. Although...
