I would like Lexus build a coupe that sits in between a GS and the LS. Basically a 6 series, CLS fighter.
Audi is already in the works for the A7...CLS and 6 series are not going anywhere...Lexus needs to crank one out. It could be a 2door or 4door just as long as it competes with these vehicles. That would really only leave Infiniti and Jaguar to build something similar and im positive they both will follow suit.

Any one of them as long as it's:
1) Available with a MANUAL transmission
2) RWD, AWD option would be nice (leaves an ES coupe out)
3) Available with a Sports Package that actually makes the car feel like a sports coupe
4) 2 engine options, both offered with the manual tranny
That's about all I'd ask for.

Bring back the original SC line from the 1990's.
IMO, it was probably as good or better than any coupe Lexus could replace it with today. The SC430, despite a stunning wood-paneled interior and a trick-folding top, was, otherwise, IMO, not in the same league as the original SC. There was also no 6-cylinder version, which was a serious oversight.

GS coupe would be cool to have something to run against the E class coupes, but I would settle for a new SC with styling that makes you look the other way. They nailed the interior. The exterior is an aquired tatste

I really think two coupes are enough in Lexus lineup, one entry-level fixed hardtop sports coupe(like an IS coupe) so many people could afford one, and one RWD supercar to establish a high-performance image for Lexus in the $120k-$150k price range with at least 480hp. Both of them must be fixed hardtop. Five sedans, three SUVs, and two coupes would do it in my opinion.
