prix Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 "Don't Like" (to quote Anna Nicole Smith) the first photo (blue pic); the other views are cool. How much? ← NICE!!! ← Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaCraig Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 Two more!! :) I don't know about YOU - but I see quite a bit of the VW Phaeton up front and the BMW 5 and 7 series at back. Still... looks pretty nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiasfinest Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 the very last pic looks real...i posted that comment right after u posted that pic...source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc211 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I was thinking the same thing, especially the BMW part of the raised trunk lines. Looks pretty good though, but I don't know, something's just not right in my opinion. I don't know what it is, but something about it just doesn't say "LS" to me. Maybe it's the modern, slicked back aerodynamics in comparision to the existing LS's out there. I view the LS as more of a big, cruiser machine personally, not a sports type machine. But time will tell. I hated the new Maximas when they came out, but have started to grow on me now. Except for the grill....still looks buck-toothed to me.

blake918 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 The light blue one is very 5 series BMW, but I kinda like it. I like the two shots of the silver ones. I've driven 1990-2005 models, and they are all too similar. Revised sheetmetal, reduced nvh levels, slightly different interiors, and a few new gadets is how each LS generation has evolved. I'm ready to see a real "new" LS series. I hope to see a big V8, a lwb option (I remember reading somewhere that it might only be available as a hybrid; I sure hope not.), and driver area dimensions that can compete with the German competition. Otherwise, we will be dealing with yet more of the same from the LS...not that it's a bad thing (although it is a bit boring), and it seems to work since it has class leading sales (correct me if I'm wrong).

CanadaCraig Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 Hi Guys!! :) The dimensions for what will most likely be the 2007 Lexus LS460 are as follows: Length ........ 199.2" Width ............ 73.8" height ........... 57.7" Wheelbase ... 117.0" Craig!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc211 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I agree with Blake too, I would like to see a more pronounced change in the design. It's starting to grow on me, looks a lot better this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dust Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 ← Yeah just looked at this again, totally mint. From what I've read it will be v8 and the fuel compensation will be fair. That in black is like wow :o ps : hey nc211 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dxt45 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 wow, that's sweet. That's what the 7-series should've looked like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melhadri Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Amazingly refined! I am excited to see this beast on the streets. Also excited about what the interior will look/feel like??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouDontKnowJack Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 the back angle shot looks nice. nice flowing lines. the hood borrows heavily from the IS with the raised hood, and the front lights are reminiscent of the current LS. the side mirrors are too big and clunky though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 I think we may finally be getting closer to what the LS will look like. Nice, big change but nice. So now I have to decide if I want an 06 and drive it until its 200k miles or if I want one of these. But, one of my business goals is new LS by spring/summer 2006 LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indiasfinest Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 im still not buying the fact that that is the new LS....im not convinced...srry but thats just me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93LSOwner Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 CanadaCraig, where did you get/find these pictures from? They are in your photobucket so we can't go back to its original site. Never the less, the design of the car looks outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93LSOwner Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 im still not buying the fact that that is the new LS....im not convinced...srry but thats just me... ← These pictures are in our archived gallery in the LS category, most likely uploaded by CanadaCraig: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/gallery/LS?page=69 I am preaty sure that these are not photoshoped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaCraig Posted October 22, 2005 Author Share Posted October 22, 2005 Hi 93LSOwner!! :) I hope you're OK. No - actually - I didn't get the LS photos from LOC archives. I think I got them from Lexus directly. [on their 39th Tokyo Auto Show webpage] You would think I'd remember - wouldn't you? Oh well... I'm getting old. :P Craig!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
