Subtle styling changes

The exterior styling of the current model Lexus GS sedan has been essentially unchanged since the car was introduced for the 2004 model year. Now this prototype, photographed just recently in Europe, gives an indication that Lexus is working on a styling facelift.

While most styling updates include freshening of all the front and rear styling, this prototype is showing only a revised front bumper. Note the subtly reshaped lower air inlet in the center, and the taller openings on either side which now better match the center opening in height. It is likely that this new bumper will be part of an overall freshening which will include new grille, headlights, taillights, etc. once the styling update is completed.

It still looks terrible, try to copy an E-class by changing the head lamps from round to angular..

This car looks great in my opinion, it's my fav Lexus. But it's sales have always been disappointingly low, hence the face lift. The model is overlooked coz Lexus has one model too many, me thinks... and touting this coupy looking sedan as a "sportier" car isn't convincing a lot of folks. After all, it's Toyota. Toyota doesn't do sports.. they just make quiet, smooth, comfy rides.

mdr2fast, please refrain from using the word "japs," you pile of racist sh!t. By saying that you lost all credibility in your post! And I'm pretty confident to say that most people like the fact it's a "toyota." You saying that like it's a bad thing. LOL!

It's too bad that mdr2fast is better at capital letters than he is with his useless, so-called facts about the US being the only country with Lexus-Infiniti-Acura.

Next, he'll tell us that he is the only US buyer who has correct information.

And, anyone who doesn't already know why he is wrong is just as misinformed as MR CAPS.

WCF should consider deactivating comments. Seems that high intelligent folks abuse this function.
