sasabihan nila ang mga lexus execs ng "you're nothing but a second-rate, trying-hard, COPYCAT!!!" sabay babatuhan sa mukha ng tubig.

thank god for TFC :bwahaha:

Pero mas maganda ang lines ng LS kaysa 7-series ha, esp. sya C-pillar

Blimey bimmy!!! It does look like the bimmer from the side!!!

But it looks good from the other angles.

I actually like the look of both the new LS460 and facelifted BMW 7-series... then I realized they had the same basic shape and proportions.
Here is something I posted at CarSpyShots under the name AM2.

from the side the Lexus' taillights look similar to those on the 5-series.

The model to watch out for is the upcoming LS600h, which mates the V8 to a hybrid system. Cant remember exactly how much horsepower that will produce, but definitely above 450bhp. That will change the way the world looks at hybrid cars!

Wahahaha, sa lahat ng bmw's to copy, yung pinakapangit pa. Looks like yung natitirang decent looking full-size e yung Jag XJ-series.

OT po: imho, itong 5-series ngayon mukhang giant Altis.

The current LS430 is a pirated, uglier S-Class. Oo nga, sa lahat naman ng pwedeng kopyahin, 7-Series pa? Sayang sobrang pogi pa naman ng IS.

So 8 gears huh? BMW comes up with 6. Then Mercedes raises it by 1. Now Lexus goes all in with twice as much gears compared to a conventional automatic. What's the problem, stolen the 8th gear from the new RAV? In fairness, at least it makes more sense to have more gears in the flagship model. Mercedes' 7G-Tronic only comes in lower models; the 2-digit (e.g. E55) and high-powered ones still have only 5 speeders.

Actually the facelifted 7-series looks much better now.

ow ko lang napansin, but this car looks a lot like the toyota reiz being offered in china now. 2.5 v6. look it up sa internet, toyota reiz. the same exhaust muffler in the rear bumper.
