just noticed, besides the brazillian motorcycle chase that the top threads right now are all toyota/lexus.



3 are suv's and one the IS500.

It's both unfortunate and amusing, because going by your criteria it would be nice to see some discussion about next LS, RC, IS, LC MMC. Almost every Lexus SUV has a Toyota connection, which is unavoidable. Only legacy "New N" cars like the XC10 RC and XE30 IS, are thoroughly Lexus, outside of GA-L based LC & LS 500/500h.

Any insight or new discussion is hard to come by because nothing happening is noteworthy outside of IS 500 FSP and they are so secretive. They did say that in the short-term all the good stuff was coming to Toyota first before Lexus.

They once said officially in the 90s that if the Lexus brand existed in the mid-twentieth century, the Land Cruiser would top out at the FJ40 or later 70 Series. The upscale Land Cruiser never would have existed, as it would automatically be a Lexus from the getgo and neither would've Cressida/Avalon or Supra.

Maybe people are getting tired of little else but Tesla and Elon Musk.

(and maybe Saturn?)

Despite the news being mostly SUVs, it is a nice change. Can't wait until Lexus' product onslaught begins in earnest after this year.
