Lexus LF SS concept . . . . . . . by Jin Hee Kim
The Lexus LF SS concept is a creation of Jin Hee Kim. The LF SS concept is based on the Lexus GS wheelbase, however the two cars differ greatly in their styling, drivetrain and packaging. The LF SS concept was designed specifically for drivers aged 30-40 in the year 2010.
The exterior styling of the Lexus LF SS, which was partly influenced by Buddhist sculpture, has been designed to appear like a single component. The short front overhang and long rear overhang have the effect of creating a sense of forward momentum, while also helping to disguise the front-mid engine layout.
Powering the Lexus LF SS concept is a hybrid drivetrain which consists of a V8 engine backed up by a dye-sensitized solar cell and electric motor.
Features of the Lexus LF SS:
- LED headlights
- Rear facing camera replaces rear view mirror
- 10 spoke jet engine inspired wheels

I actually took more of a Cayman rear take on it. The front is horrible IMO. Just a blunt ugly object. Wheels too big but otherwise I like the flowing design and gun slit side windows.

That's what I thought of first when I saw it. 
It also has Genesis-like tails.
An obvious hommage to the 5-Series.
A Dodge Charger profile.
Even the wheels are outdated, copying the 2IS (and a bunch of other cars).
Nice try, but uninspiring. Unflattering.
(Damn, I used a lot of smilies...)

it's like the worst parts of a bunch of cars fell into a pot and this came out ... somehow, all together it's not too bad, but if you really look at it, it's a no-no
