3-series convertible to get wakeup call in Detroit

sounds like a medical term.

How about L-Power, or LMG. Why stop at just copying designs?

why not TaRD? call it what it is.

Lexus for Life

How about L-D for Lexus Domination!!!

Here are a few suggestions in place of the Germanic [R, RS, M, AMG etc.] series. Forget initials use the whole name and a really big logo on the wheel hubs:
(i.) Godzilla Series
(ii.) Tsunami Series
(iii.) Formula Lexus Series
(iv.) Sake Power Series
(v.) Street Racing Series

I read on another website that Lexus is Not only working on a Lexus IS460 but also a super sport package Lexus IS500 with close to 500 horse power to compete with the like of BMW M3 and MB C55 AMG. Man that would be so awesome to see a sport version of the Lexus IS500 with a Horse Power close to 500 HP.

Lexus IS350 has already beat or out perform the BMW 330, I guess now their next goal is to take the crown away from the M3 and at the same time beat MB C55 AMG with their Lexus IS500. Than in my opinion the Lexus LF-A with over 500 Horse Power is going to compete with M-5 and M-6, that is sweet. I know what you BMW lover going to says already are you stupid?, my answer is No, because before everyone though it Impossible for the IS to beat the 330 series, but now the IS350 has beaten the 330 and also take it crown. So why not the M3, M5 or even the M6? anything is possible in the automotive world now day. Just like a few decade ago MB was doing really good, and than it did Not do so Well, so it was sold to chryler and now chryler is having problem themselves. No one can remain number one forever. Time changes so are people, before all rich folks buy MB, BMW, Jaguar but nowday many rich people have decided to buy Lexus, Infiniti and other high end brand.

BMW still make great cars, but I just happen to like Lexus more than BMW, MB, or even Jaguar. Everyone has their own right to buy whatever they want and I respect that.

That does look really nice I have to admit! I wonder if the production version will look that hot. As for the IS "beating" the 330, that discussion has been beaten to death, it might have a quicker 0-60 time, but is that the sole evaluation we base our judgement on? The 335ci will close that gap nicely in my opinion.

Back to the discussion, that convert. looks really good, kudos to Lexus design.

Give it a rest already. Nobody is "scared". What are we scared of? Somebody getting a better value or beating us in stoplight races we don't even participate in anyways? Grow up.

This car is awesome.

It may name ISR.

It will definately be a big competitor to M3,RS4 and not to mention C55 AMG.

The engine only is blasting, wow 450+ hp

Thats more than 420hp of RS4 and even will be more than the upcoming M3's 400+

I pretty sure that this same engine will be in the production Versions of th IS Coupe/Convertable,Because of the 400+ of Audi and BMW.Lexus will not sit behind and watch.

And guys plz accept that Lexus is nowhere behind to any Big Brand in the World, eg BMW or MB

They can make equally or more good cars than any in the world.And also they know how to sell them.

Now what's left in TOYOTA/Lexus.

They r simply the best,leader KING of Motor World

Hey buster

This is not an english class and i said several times that my first language is not english.

Well here on autospies, our main focus should be on cars and not on language much.

ANd u don't open your mouth too much if u r answerless to my valid and true comments.

Foolish Audi fallow.

I like the design of the car, but the lights seem to be the same as the GS, those are very ugly, so com'on Lexus make some better front lights.

Buster,

I guess if you saw a German who is an Audi, BMW, MB fan on this site lauding the German cars in not so great English you would treat them the same cold and bashful way that you treat a fan of Lexus cars?

Why are you insulting Lexus when any single Lexus exec is making multiple times the money you are making. You are making crumbs compared to them yet you treat them like miserable pricks. What is wrong with you?

Does it hurt your feelings or offend you that somebody likes a different car than you? Seriously. This is just cars! Not life or death. I guess it means you have zero character.

Have you any idea of how many foreign people there are out in the world that have better educations than yours and maybe even know more about cars than you do or even economics but don't have the same finesse in English as maybe yourself?

I hope you get T-Boned by a Lexus one day and then maybe you would appreciate your life and not spend so much time on the internet starting fights over cars.

Mike.
