thats pretty sick, IMO i think they could have done something better instead of putting led's in the headlights though, every automanufacturers are following this trend now

This is the nicest Civic Ive seen in a long time...
There must be a conspiracy between large automobile manufacturers to keep cars dull, I mean if Toyota has the capability to make the beautiful LFA, why the hell cant they put a shell like that on the IS. I think the answer here is, if they did that, what would they sell you next year or the years after if you have a beautiful car already.

I guess this is the last hurrah for the 2nd gen IS. Wonder when a 3rd gen concept will be released?

I don't know about you guys but i thought the commercial was pretty lame... what am i trying to get out of it? I don't see how a Lexus sports sedan relates to the beat or the drums. I mean, the idea is kinda cool how they were able to use the car to hit each drum... but can't you throw out the Lexus and put any other car in the same position?
I don't know, it just doesn't speak to me.
What do others think?

This ones an exception I guess, since IS 2nd gen is going on for 5th, on to 6th year. So next year, a 3rd gen will be out for sure. Probably summer, or end of summer.

LED DRLs are becoming more mainstream because of the upcoming EU requirement (all DRLs must be LED).. It's not because they're all trying to mock Audi..

You saw the photoshop I made above right? Even if reshaping a car is going to cost Toyota a lot of money at least they can give it a cheap face lift like their concept car here.
I love the LFA, LS and the SC is okay but the rest are boring looking to me http://www.lexuswallpapers.com/bulku...0-Roadster.jpg |
