Thx for the pics, Rashoodz! Lexus.jp packages it as 'version UZ', 'version SZ' etc. so the SZ variant is like the Touring one was here in that respect. No separate badging, but now there's more differentiation.

So that's the new Matador Red on the new LS ... hmmm ... I still don't like that "sport" grill, and the trim/color combination inside that SZ model is
I do like the turn signals ...

I'd be seriously surprised if they didn't look exactly like these:

From the U.S. dealer rumor mill, this model is headed for our shores, informally called the "LS Sport" model. I wonder how interested our forum members will be in such a variant. I suppose it depends on the specs...and price...

I received an email last week from Lexus and they have released info on their North America site the "Sport" model.

Seems everything they did was bolt on cosmetics expect the paddle sifter. HP is the same.

I had 3 generations of 7 series and when they did a mid production face lift they would do that same thing. On my 95 740 I changed out all the newer body parts from the 99 face lift, back than.

I ordered my 07 "L" touring with what the Sport has now expect paddle shifters. http://www.lexus.com/models/LS/sport...:Image1:2010LS

I would have liked to seen a 550hp with better wheels pacakeage...they are getting there but slowly.

That would be a real LS-F instead of just a "Sports" model

I think it will have a lower priority than a SC-F & GS-F, if they would even consider it at all ...
