I'll have to wait until I hear about how it performs..

Cool!!

It's a bit soon to vote for this one but I voted cool just because it looks pretty cool.

I think a lot of people will think: Look at this riced up Lexus. Look at those exhausts!! :mrgreen:

Yup. . . no vote yet.

Cool concept with too many doors.

It looks like a ricer. What happened to Lexus subtlety? Uncool!

Poseur's car...it has a fair amount of power, and I don't doubt that it goes and stops well, but it's only available with an 8-speed auto...

I don't thnik I wil vote cool for any lexus except Lexus GS 450h. IS-F is uncool for em.

Surrealistic design, who drew this thing? Salvador Dali?

It probably works great because its a Lexus, but that is the reason it is uncool. A Lexus will never be cool.

the 4 door is uncool, still awaiting on the 2 door coupe that resembles a futuristic supra, now that will definitely be cool (OH IF TOYOTA WOULD ONLY RELEASE IT UNDER THE TOYOTA BRAND)

The way things are going, we'll never see it under any brand. Which I think is a good thing.

Suppose to have one of the best automatics around, better than most sequential manuals. 100 millisecond shift times is pretty damn good.

14.2" Brembos in the front taking just 106 ft to stop from 60mph. 4.4 Seconds 0-60mph. 71.2mph slalom.

I don't think that is a "poseur's car" at all. And this is coming from a BMW guy.

It's a Lexus, which means it can't be cool (Toyota can, for being a bit blue-collar). And since it's comfortable and has an automatic, that makes it seriously uncool.

It doesn't matter how fast the gearbox makes shifts, explain that to the engineers all you want, but a normal person would be bored before you say the second word. Automatics are uncool. It may very well be fast, but so is an airliner.
