I don't believe it will look like this, this car doesn't scream sexy at all, it tells me that it's dorky. The overall is good but the doors are way to short for a 2010 lexus coupe. I know they will want it to be sleek and sexy.

^^^ that's a total photoshop.
since when have you seen coupe doors edges that straight??
look at the s5 and 335i for example.
bottom rear door edges are always curvy.

there's a good chance the IS convertible will look better than that ugly bland G37 coupe.

Reminds me way to much of the Altima coupe also.

I would think Lexus would go with different sheetmetal, front & rear end treatment for the vert.

Where's Richie? He should hop on over to Paris Auto Show this weekend and take some "real world" pictures for us.
C'mon Richie, while there you can eat a croissant and pick up on the French chicks.

Good idea Liz
Send him a pm/email, or if you have his number, give him a phone call

I'm chatting with him on IM right now.
I'm trying to be very convincing for him to go...
He wants at least one other CL member to go along with him.
Liz, you're his first choice.
Mike, he'll buy you a beer if you go...

It's not that I dislike the IS body. It's just more refreshing to see something different (hopefully still good).
