Make no mistake this is intentional. Do you *love* the new GR GT/LFR - well how about you consider this gigantic 3 row SUV that's similarly designed! 🤣🤣🤣
In all honesty, I wish this design language appeared first on a next-gen IS/updated LS to keep the sporty association (and not the TX/LBX (though one could argue they have made a sporty LBX)).

The development time of GR GT is going to match the LFA. Remember the LC-F was 95% ready in 2020 and should have launched in 2021? Both projects changed direction half way through the cycle and suffered from constant feature creep. When they finally release they are already obsolete.
With such long delays the expectations are also sky high. To me if the track version can't match the AMG GTBS it's a total failure.
5 years have passed since the LC-F cancellation so the NDAs must have long expired. I know some people on this forum work/worked at Lexus dealers before. Did Lexus ever show the LC-F mockup/prototype during dealer meetings? Or did they cancel it even before dealers had the chance to see what's coming next?

In terms of design, this is excellent.
Isn't THIS the THAT that everyone had been seeing and asking for?

This looks incredible! I’m really hoping this ends up being the Lexus version of the GT car. Praying it’s not BEV as that will produce major cases of blue balls. If the next-gen IS (if there even is one) resembles anything close to this design philosophy, I may crawl back to Lexus.

I am not in attendance which is highly disappointing on a personal note; so will save judgement until I see it in person.
Here is a screenshot from the vid I lightened up.
