I sure hope the LF-Sh will be released before the camry will, b/c there's too many similar resemblances b/t the flagship and the little cousin (assuming these are the final products)

As Pete DeLorenzo would say..."Notgonnahappen.com". Camry comes out in the spring, LS in the Fall of 2006. The bigger concern would be what the ES looks like on this platform vs. the LS. The ES as a mini version of the LS!?

Really really bad idea for Toyota to give the Camry and new LS to have some off the same styling, even if more 'swoopy' on the LS.

I have to say it and it may put some in shock

TOYOTA WHAT IN THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING!?!?!

This is also the same crap when the dealers and factory would paint the Camry 2-tone like the ES. WHY WOULD U DO THAT?????

This is a BIG mistake. I don't know WHY they insist on making the Camry look more and more sporty. Let it BE, its a CAMRY, let it be a sleeper if anything.

How in the hell could Lexus claim :L-Finesse" when "T-tinesse" is right next to it.

This is stupid. STUPID.

We shouldn't make assumptions on low quality pics like that.

Plus, we don't know what the new LS will look like, as the LF-Sh is about 85%, a figure insiders have, of what the new LS will look like.

I too will await to see the ES and the LS to judge whether or not all three look similar.

This may have Lexus styling cues like the new Avalon, but does the new IS or GS resemble the Avalon? I think not.

I am hopeful there will be enough differentiation between the Camry, ES, and LS. It would be foolish in Toyota's case to not differentiate them.

im with you...all the hype about L-finesse and to have a toyota come out looking like what was posted goes against all that they say. i think they're just trying to throw people off

No because it is too similar to the LF-Sh concept and thus everyone may end up saying the new LS is just a 'glorified Camry' which of course won't be true, but perception is important.

This could hurt Lexus. People could just go out and buy a Camry and say it's looks and rides very similar to a Lexus and saved much more money than buying a Lexus. Keep Toyota conservative and let it be a Camry. They also shouldn't have an option for the Camry to have navagation either. Just my opinion.

"Luxury" items always get eventually trickled down to lesser cars, always. Think power seats, leather, HID, etc. The line between luxury cars and mainstream cars is constantly moving, as higher-end cars keep passing down their once exclusive equipment to lesser cars and receive even higher-end, more cutting-edge items at the same time. Navigation just happens to be one of the luxury items that has been around for long enough for this trickle-down effect to happen. Just look at toyota.jp--EVERY model in their lineup down to Vitz (Yaris) gets to have navigation. If anything North America is quite behind the times. Not only should Camry get navigation but also the Corolla and even the xA! Just my opinion.
