I'm sure you already got that figured out by now but if not, it's called Toyota Soarer in Japan.

Lexus is Toyota in Japan. The SC line in Japan is the Soarer. Toyota, Honda, and Nissan can't make luxury vehicles in the US so they have luxury export divisions instead. Lexus,Acura,Infinity. Lexus is actually Luxury EXport in the United States. socially people in Japan call cars by their Chassis Code.

Not sure about "new" but supposidly, the next gen of the Lexus SC/Toyota Soarer line will be the LF-LC. Lexus Future-Luxury Coupe.




ソアラ = Soarer,
