Sorry I was bored again.
Thank you everyone for the previous coverage! I had the day off for coverage but I ended up being 40minutes late of the release.

For your viewing pleasure. I'll look for wheels later.

Excellent .

Superb design, just jaw-dropping!

Confirmation of a "next-generation" hybrid powertrain. That's why the concept has an 8K RPM redline. Just as I figured, this is teasing at next-gen Lexus powertrains.

Next-gen Lexus powertrains will be coming in the next 2-3 years, just wait .

This is easily the hottest debut at Detroit. Completely overshadows the new "NSX".

I love how they're calling this the "third phase" of Lexus. They emphasized the upcoming product barrage too .

i have to agree. i think the NSX concept looks very nice, but it looks homely next to the LF-LC.

I rarely agree with your views, but yes, everything you just said, spot on!

The NSX concept aren't bad if the LF-LC aren't there. But the LF-LC make the NSX looks blah

A lot of live pics posted by AutoSpies.

A closer look at the door with the touch screen:


Dash and the steering wheel column:



Headlights:


View from the rear, where the lines I personally find quite awkward looking and hope Lexus can fix:

For one thing, stupid honda didn't even have interior pictures.
Design is ok, It's not like I'll be trading in mine tomorrow if it's in the showroom.

On the other hand, I can't wait for the new SC

It looked like the car came onto the stage under its own power. I wonder how they pulled that off.
Depending what goes under the skin, this car is worthy of being the LFB
