Lets hope it gets rave reviews like the GS for being sportiest in class, so the Lexus haters can then ignore that fact and pick on **** like "omg led light" and "omg predator" and "omg enthusiasts don't buy Lexus".

Lexus better had nailed it again with the handling/steering

they seem to love LFA gauges... good feedback on TTAC facebook page where they posted the look (vs for instance that crappy ATS gauges that everyone disliked)

I agree! The non F-Sport looks much better and more sportier too. I think people will get the F-Sport mainly for the interior, and then convert the front end to non F-Sport Similar happened with the GS, people bought lux models and converted to F-Sport

I like the f sport much better than the non f sport. I don't like the way the blades on the grill of the non f sport have that weird curve to them. I will be getting the f sport and leaving it the way it is.

After some time, the F-Sport looks better to me. The look more harmonious and integrated compared to the non F-Sport front grille.
