Lexus really could have done so much better. The LFA proves that but instead they make a total pigs ear of it :worried:

I think it's great in blue. Ferg had one for a test drive and said it was a bag of sh*te though.

Completely agree, the LFA was a master piece and a well executed learning curve for them. However this seems to be truly awful, the two tone one above looks like its fallen out of a Bradford car show

If I squint, the first picture, the silver and black one, looks to me like one of those diesel Jettas that people seem to be pimping lately.
I don't count that as a good thing.

And the wheels look like something that was in about 10 years ago.

GS-F gets excellent reviews compared to RC-F difference chassis altogether, does great at the figure 8's on this review similarities to gt86 in terms of fun with the active diff. The right colour and your sorted like that blue. There is something to be liked at the modest way lexus do things and importantly they build to the highest standard. Reviewers have been haters to the brand for to long some excellent cars they have produced have got far to much unnecessary slating.

looks like they went way off on a tangent during the design process and didn't recover....

Didn't Lexus Belfast also wrap a RCF in bright yellow?

I'm sure the GSF will appeal to a specific crew, not many new naturally aspirated performance saloons.

I like it in the blue, white is trying too hard.

Looks like an Aussie touring car or something

I took my dad a wander round the garages when they were over visiting and we seen that sitting outside Lexus. I genuinely thought one of the mechanics had had a go wrapping bits in carbon wrap and stuck a wee spoiler on lol.

Horrendous looking thing! +o( We both had a good chuckle at it and walked on by, I'll have to tell him it was £70k :eek:

I like it, just not in that colour with carbon wrap, is that the dealers idea? As I don't really think that's what Lexus are about
