Stankin Lancoln Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 IMO the ES and LFA are the only decent looking cars they make. I still love the 2 previous gen GS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF1011 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I saw this earlier on Facebook and I'll leave my same comment here as I did there: it looks like they took a real car and used the Photoshop "push" tool on every single corner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Wow. This is what the negatards think Lincoln should be doing? That doesn't look like a Lexus quality interior to me. Are they cost cutting to help sales or is this the new Lexus design language? I hate that grille on this and all the other Lexii.

Here's the comment I left on the same facebook message: It's not the headlights... It's that "Nike" checkmark that ruins it... and the grille...and those stupid vent things in the front...and the back. The headlights are the least of its problems.

Hugh Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 The interior is a miss-mash of 80's with newer materials and safety requirements. Confusing to say the least. This is for the brand-whores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 That grille. I am so tired of "Oh, we need a signature grille. What shape hasn't been used before a million times? Oh. Let's use that. Let's not stop and think that oh, just maybe it hasn't been used before because it's UGLY, we have to use it because it's different, and, being different, people will look at it and say 'Oh! My eyes!! Also, isn't that the new Lexus?' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papilgee4evaeva Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Pursuant to the picture above, as well as many concurrent opinions, I dub this current group of Lexus models "The Predator Generation." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Additionally, some of those Predator teeth seem to be not only useless, but also potentially dangerous to the Predator himself. It's almost as though it wasn't some alien creature at all, but something invented by a human being who was trying to come up with a really scary looking thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still reminds me of this: This is what immediately came to mind when I saw this Lexus for the first time. In view of the new Lexus signature "look," I don't want to hear any complaints about the Lincoln front ensemble. I'd rather be reminded of a 1941 Continental than the creature from a fun-but-cheesy 1980s Arnold Schwarzenegger flick.

If I recall correctly, the four large outer "teeth" could be extended by the alien for use as additional weapons/protection. But it has been a long time since I've seen that movie.

jpd80 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 It's like that sexy ugly blonde you keep staring at.....the difference is that you don't see the face when you drive the car.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
