It's always been said that usually after five years the design goes down the tubes as the cars begin to age, perhaps due to some lack of passion and heritage(in this case Lexus has only been around for 15 years) but the Japenese seem to be going some sort of design revolution, implementing elements of Japenese culture into their designs. I think Lexus has done a great job w/ it's latest, starting w/ the new GS, time will only tell how well the designs age but they're off to what looks to be a good start. If anyone has any passing thoughts on this subject, please share, I'd be intersted to hear...

Well, Toyota in general has never really had any style before recently. The Supra was the most "risky" styling they had pre-2002 (new Camry). They're finally taking some bigger styling risks with the new "L-Finesse" look, and, if you ask me, it finally fits in stylewise.

my thoughts are and it's echo'd by 1sicklex is the german cars are starting to look japanese and the japanese look european...or maybe it's meldding into a more uniform look?
