^ That's a Toyota Altezza bro

Timpo 01-09-2013 07:57 PM

ok maybe not, it's left hand drive...

Akinari 01-09-2013 11:27 PM

The Lexus IS300 is a rebadged Toyota Altezza. The two are completely identical save for the front grille and engines...

:pokerface:

Not true. Asian model / JDM models are much lighter. Different/ short front and rear bumpers. they dont have much of a bumper beam. RS200 models also had much lesser sound deadening than the USDM IS300

initially i felt bad for my mom who just got a 2013 is250 not too long ago, but now i dont know anymore

the video definitely makes it look better than the pictures. seems like lexus is trying too hard to be fun and sporty.

FerrariEnzo 01-10-2013 04:36 AM

The front and sides of the car doesnt match..
Front is so aggressive while the side of the car is smooth... I like the side of the car... the body blends so well...

Grille looks like a golf ball :derp:

Someone photoshop bane's mask onto the grill :lawl:

RRxtar 01-10-2013 09:57 AM

it seriously looks like someone new to photoshop took a pic of a car and played with the pinch and warp and smudge tools

Dragon_27 01-10-2013 02:48 PM

very aggressive looking, I kinda like it, it shows lexus is doing a similar approach to all their front end of their cars. grill looks a bit tacky though...

badboy 01-10-2013 08:11 PM

i like it.

Akinari 01-10-2013 08:12 PM

Sonata looks great, the new IS looks like the designers wanted something real "cutting-edge", literally...

Domani 01-10-2013 08:12 PM

beautiful interior as always. imo they've gone overboard with the Predator styling.

ed99 01-10-2013 08:24 PM

I like everything except for the rear tail lights. That's got to go!!

ForeverYours 01-10-2013 08:29 PM

The new grill not growing on me yet

Quick photoshop, changed the grill up to what I find to be a bit more attractive...

This will look great in black. White I'm not so sure...

Timpo 01-11-2013 01:42 AM

That would just be like GT-R grill...it's been a new trend nowadays

Here Is A 2014 Lexus IS Wagon

http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/18b6...g/original.jpg

that is the only picture I could find of it but from a first glance I think it looks good but still those brake lights/rear end :suspicious: :yuno:

EDIT: I posted the picture as a link :failed:

Sky_High 01-11-2013 11:12 AM
