I found this at http://www.club-aristo.net/. The front license plate says "Holiday Auto" which is the Japanese car magazine the site says featured this car in April 2002 as the next Aristo. It looks like a Benz CL ripoff to me.

I hope to god this isnt the new Aristo/GS. I cant read the text code on the japanese site so I have no idea what it said underneath it. But it did have an interior shot of it and there was a Toyota symbol on the steering wheel.To me it looks like a little LS430 from the front, but look at the lights, they look a bit GS'ish on the first pic, and it says something that looks like it could say Aristo on the back left on pic 2. Someone prove me wrong and tell me what this ugly thing is.I imagine its some random Toyota model that isnt coming here but i had to bring this up since it was on an Aristo site.

if this is it, I want my reward!!

If this is it then I will be happy to give you the reward espically since I will go with the current GS rather than this thing.

Well Lexus/Toyota needs to leak some pictures soon...I'm getting kinda antsy with my next car...When I arrived in London, I saw quite a few of the new E-Class (W211) and the new CLK (W209) and I must say, they both look VERY NICE...I didn't get a chance to pick up a set of catalogs while in the UK but when I arrived in Paris, I went to the showroom on Champs Elysees (where they had the new 2002 CLK DTM car on display...simply AWESOME....) and picked up a couple of catalogs (albeit they're in French) and I got to sit in a new CLK...very nice, I must say...and the new E-Class might have a C230 Sport-Coupe-like panoramic roof/sunroof (they have it here, dunno if they'll offer it in the USA)

Dunno...I'm getting lured to dark side...I hope Lexus releases pictures of the new GS soon...although if it's as bad as most of the "new" GS pictures I've seen, I just might have to jump ship...

The new E-Class also has a keyless start feature...kinda nice...

I think kevs post is probably the closest to what it will look like. But if you look at it it looks like it is a 2002 GS with a new front end. It looks like someone took a pic from a lexus brochure and chopped up the front.

First of all, I simply don't believe Toyota has even finalized the coachwork for the new GS.
I wouldn't be at all surprised to see their v10 debut in the next GS. I've got my fingers crossed.
