What could this be? a GT86 based concept? Apparantly Lexus say it will preview their future designs.

What I hate About Lexus is that they come out with some really nice concepts IMO with sharp lines and then production models are always wattered down and look less appealing. I don't actually mind some models like the IS (apart from interior) and LS, but the RX is shit and GS I dunno it's grown on me but still looks like a Toyota. If they stuck to their concepts they might be able to compete with the germans.

It will be a gt86 based car with a hybrid 4 banger motor. Lexus has failed as of late with the product.

I get major new-gen Lotus vibes from that pic.

Looks good!

Lexus concepts always turn triangley before they hit production. Concept looks alright though.

Lexus cars are getting really sporty sharp look while BMW designs are getting softened.
The world is gone wild.

BMW needs to get with it.

It looks like a mini LF-A. It's got potential I'll admit that. I like the roofline and the front/rear look ok just need to separate the grille in the middle. I've got a feeling Lexus will prob mess the production model up though.
