2014 Lexus IS: This Is It

There's no way this is pic of production model...

These new Lexus grills . . . :heckno:

jpark 01-09-2013 08:57 AM

rear tail lights are basically the current ones just flipped around lol

snails 01-09-2013 09:13 AM

used to love the IS... no more :pokerface:

Some people like the heavy, classy look of Lexuses (Lexi?) - and others find them incredibly dull..

If they tone it down a bit it wouldn't be so bad. I don't mind it. Even the new grill is interesting, without being retarded like Acura's attempt.

That little crease in the rear doors are pretty obnoxious though.

this cant be production.. way way way too crazy...

I like it, its a step up from being boring for lexus and they now have their own signature grill. I remember everyone making fun of Audi when it first came out with the huge grill but now its sexy especially on the S models.

All they need now is a balling coupe...something to compete with the 6series and CL.

Unique how the headlights and the LEDs gives the illusion of one-piece in some angles.

I think that is going to become another mainstream.
Lexus is known for innovative design and other manufactures will usually follow them.

Look at Altezza(Lexus IS) taillights, LS/ISF Exhaust, etc...everyone is following them.

Looks like someone walked up to the nose and gave it a good pinch.

radioman 01-09-2013 10:20 AM

I like the LED DRL and interior but something about that face.

And even I own a car with an "interesting" face.

Timpo 01-09-2013 10:22 AM

look at how everyone is copying Lexus exhaust lol

the LED DRL is actually on the bumper...unlikely attached to headlight like other cars.

also look at the front grill...you can see the top and bottom are integrated.
you can still see the line in the grill...it's actually top and bottom connected together.

inv4zn 01-09-2013 10:43 AM

Actually, now, I like it. :notbad:

AVS_Racing 01-09-2013 10:46 AM

I like it, + the way they designed that the 2 piece head light and drl, I thought it was 1 piece when I first saw it. It's one of those cars where theres a lot of effort in the little design touches that takes a while to take all of it in and discover. Unlike those who just use sharp angles and designed the car with a ruler.

mos_skeeto 01-09-2013 10:56 AM

I don't mind the hourglass but everything around it looks a bit wack. I don't like how the rear lights look droopy. I guess that want to stand out from the A4 and 3 series but damn...

twitchyzero 01-09-2013 11:01 AM

personally like the front end..very aggressive
designs went full korean on those taillights tho
and HOT DAMN LFA speedo on a sub $50k car? super nice but it makes LFA less exclusive

Considering Korean cars are now designed by Germans, not too sure what it is to go "full Korean."

Also, it's LFA "inspired" lol

freakshow 01-09-2013 11:29 AM

dat speedo :sweetjesus:

!Aznboi128 01-09-2013 11:41 AM

that interior is really nice.... the exterior is hard to love but a lot of nice styling cues.... hard to say
