Both of them must be fixed hardtop. Five sedans, three SUVs, and two coupes would do it in my opinion.

How about an entry level, mid-level and top of the line.

IS 350 C (fixed hardtop coupe)
SC 350 (fixed hardtop coupe)
LF-A (fixed hardtop coupe)

At this point, any real coupe from Lexus would be a plus.

It's been years since the original SC coupes.

And, while opinions differ on this, I certainly can't say (for several reasons) that the 2nd-gen SC was, IMO, a plus over the original.

But the SL-Class isn't a coupe.

Now you're stepping on bmw's territory

GT's are now raised 5 door hatchbacks/wagons

GS coupe then the LS coupe. Knowing how lexus takes their time, I'll probably end up with an old NSX first

The LF-A fixed hardtop will come out next year. I hope and believe a 3SC 460 will come out but most likely as a hard top convertible just like the SC 430...

So nothing in Lexus coupes short term and nothing in the sweet spot of the market that BMW/Audi/Infiniti coupes successfully sell in.

I am going to hope the LF-L or LF-A or whatever is the "Halo" to a future coupe product onslaught.

I want everyone to look at coupe sales that I now post in the monthly sales thread. Luxury coupes do not sell well but its great for image and people do want them. Don't expect 50,000 coupe sales.
