Hey, I think I like it!
Two things...
(1) Wouldn't you assume the new headlights would be "adaptive" headlights? And if so, would that complicate those of you wanting to swap them out to earlier model years?
(2) Doesn't it look like there is a black pad on the exterior door handle in the one picture for a Smart Key option (or whatever Lexus calls their keyless system)? That would be a welcomed addition as far as I am concerned.

2) umm.... that could be just the key hole? remember, the car in japan they are right hand drive, so the hole on the right side of the car that could be the key hole. i don't see a pic that's showing the pessenger side

my mom has an SC...and this looks a lot better even though there are not many changes
the tailights are a lot better and don't look as cheap...i can't wait to see it other colors
by the way...how can you guys tell that it has a 6 speed (even though it is likely that it will)?????

Another day, another set of pics from response.jp
Somehow I'm starting to sense an MR2 Spyder in the new headlights.
What is that pipe attached the exhaust for?
Not really seeing any change in the interior:
Am I the only one that prefers the old taillights? The white stripe doesn't work for me here.

The gearshifter obviously controls the 6 spd Super ECT-i tranny w/Sport Shift/M-mode.
The dash has full backlit Optitron flourescent vacuum display and the odometer, has a negative/reverse LCD display.
Here's the old:

yeah from that angle someone the taillights look kinda weird. it's like they put clear there just for the heck of it. umm.... gotta think.
i am still digging the headlights though
and for that pipe on the exhaust, maybe it's there so people can start the car and the showroom wont' smeel like crap?
