If this is true, I hope it's a real station wagon and not some hatchback-y thing.
Kinda like this GS station wagon mockup. Sexy as hell!
Edit: These renderings aren't too shabby either!

Good trick Lexus. I'm fairly certain no wagon variants are planned for any Lexus (outside of the CT hatchback)

Ugh, I really want another Sportcross in the US. That GS wagon is beautiful.

Does anyone else see Previa in the liftgate of that GS wagon mock-up?

It's been confirmed by the top Lexus executives I spoke with, there will be NO SportCross/Wagon variant for the 3rd Generation IS.

They did it to make the Lexus fans tune into the reveal even though the pictures got leaked.

This could have been a great opportunity for Lexus. Lots of enthusiasts would have been excited for a new IS Cross Sport with 6 cylinders, considering that BMW and Audi are only offering their wagons in the US with four cylinders (albeit turbo).
