GS-F, then SC-F ........
This is assuming that the LF-A is already a done deal right?
A V12 bi-turbo LS-F would be cool too but a little further down the line...built to order maybe?

no F model SUVs, and If Lexus even consider a FWD ES, Camry based F car I swear I will hunt down the engineer that proposed the idea.

How a bout a small mid engined rwd convertible/coupe Lexus? then we could have an F version of that too.

And eventually, I would like to see all models with a F model.

I would really Like Lexus to do what Audi does, offer S and RS models.

But "h" and "F" models of each car. That would be superb.
Ditto what this fool said, . Except SC would be first, followed GS and Lastly LS.

The SC is due for a replacement, so I wouldn't bother.

A GS-F would be cool, but Lexus is marketing the GS450h as a "performance" car, so it'll need to have an M5 level of horsepower to be a legitimate option.

The LS600h pretty much has the luxury market covered, unless Lexus wants a mega-horsepower LS that goes head-to-head with the Mercedes S65. Lexus is too conservative to even attempt this... (I'm NOT a hater or doubter, just stating the sad reality)

What Lexus needs is a flagship sports car (LF-A) and coupe and hard top convertible versions of the IS. The 3-series has all the bases covered, and the new C-Class is on the way and has the CLK variant.

Is anybody over at Lexus listening?

GS-F needs to have 550hp. 600hp to be safe -- I'd get one.
SC-F needs to look like a beast. A raped ape just to be safe -- I'd get one.

LS-F (LS600lh?) needs to be the ultimate in luxury and power. We're talking about tidal waves of torque and finesse. I'd surely get one!

But realistically? I voted for GS-F just so it brings more folks on board. I wouldn't be crazy to say that the E55 and M5 attract the best kind of car enthusiasts -- ones with money, wisdom, and a kids heart.
