I didn't think they could make it any worse, but never count Lexus out.

^^^ Lexus to you is like women to men! One or other way, can't live with them... can't live without them!

Well you know they have to facelift when the S-Class facelifts. They can't help it. Whether they have anything really new or not, they must change the LS when the S-Class changes.

A duplicate is never better than the original.

Before the facelift, the LS looked actually good, but this thing, is butt ugly! The lights are horrible and the front bumper is ultra fat!

Gosh! Toyota are really going to bad to worse. Their cars used to be attractive 5 years ago but now days they are painful to the eyes. I like the LA-F touches in the tail lights but what they have done to the front end is beyond understandable. Thanks to the enlarged head light clusters and their fizy bulbs and all, the car looks disproportionate. The front end is too vertical and too tall for a sedan.

How boring.....

Wow it has a V6 with 310bhp!!!!!!!!

I must simply sell my 7-series, S-class and A8 to have this must have car!

Stupid idiot of a commenter saying
"Ive ridden in one of these and ill say, that this model blows most of its competition away."

I wonder if it has anything to do with adjusting to the new European Pedestrian Safety Laws.

Looks like Lexus is trying to curry favor (aka "ass kissing") with some local politicians here!

It's awfully hard to like a car that's designed for people who hate driving.

You wanna know what the really truth is?? Lexus can't stop ripping off the W140.

I wouldn't trust that site at all.

Furthermore, those pictures look a lot like photoshops.

When it comes to Toyota products, Burlapps' site is actually pretty reliable...somehow he has gotten images up of future Toyota products prior to alot of the big-wig auto sites.

The LS is one of the few Lexuses (Lexi?) that i still like. Yes, it has blatantly cribbed the 7er's line, but it's pretty damn worthy car. It's build quality is incredible. THe ML stereo is epic. For what it is, a large luxo barge, it does it job rather well. My only complaint are the interior details, something that I have echoed in the past, which are the obvious Toyota bits. Also the burl walnut wood just does not seem right. And there ought to be more customization options like MB's Designo or BMW's Individual program

Having seen the pics on Burlapp's sight, i'm not digging these changes. The rear lights look horrible and fussy, like a half-ass attempt to look artistic; the current looks elegant and simple. And the front lights look too big compared to the current set-up, which makes it look so chubby.

I liked where they were going design-wise. L-Finesse, while gimmicky-sounding, gave them some direction. I liked the GS and IS when it came out, but time has not been good to it. The LX, however, looks like Transformer, and that's not a compliment. The new RX looks like a face-lift of the old one. Now that I think about it, Centurion, you are right, their designs have been on a downwards slope these past few years. I think it's time that Lexus get some new designers. And designers who only design Lexi.
