Lexus Unveils 200mph Sports Car Design!
http://www.clublexus.com/index.php/a...view/3257/1/10
500 horsepower
This is not your father's Lexus! It has some Ferrari and Aston Martin influences I think.

I would be happy my car does 100mph.  Not that I would go that fast but if I wanted to.
With Aloha,
Ranney

The next 1-2 years will be big for Toyota. It'll be interesting to see if anything like the LF-A actually makes it to production.
BTW, have you seen the new Avalon? It will really test the ES...
j/k

Looks like the love child of a DB9 and an S2000. (I’m not saying that’s a bad thing mind you.)

Yeah, definitely looks S2000ish in the front. Is this the car that is supposed to be the long awaited return of the Supra?

The new Avalon looks like Solomon Grundy kicked in its trunklid...

I am almost sure this will go into production. I know some Lexus insiders including their audio team and two top sales people and they have been told by corporate that it is a done deal. Autospies has pics of them testing a pre-production version.
They will siphon off some super car sales I think. It will be a good start for introducing a new performance emphasis at Lexus...
I've been told that HQ scrapped a planned M like performance upgrade in favor of the LFA development into a real offering.
