Paris Motor Show Quick Pics: Lexus IS250C Caught Live

reminds me too much of a solara. The rear end it too high also...

Not stunning to me at all. The 3/4 rear looks too thick and the wheel well looks quite small in relation to that.

The car itself is beginning to look outdated since it's been out for a few years now.

Beautiful from every angle, makes the oddly proportioned 1 and 3series look like an eyesore.

This is only its 2nd gen. and already we have an M3 competitor & a convt.

agree it looks stunning, nice touches to an already beautiful and sleek design, my favourite chnage is black lining in the tailights like LX570. way btter looking than it's competiotrs.

I don't work for Lex and I am actually a Nissan fan first.

I love the design of the IS sedan & ISF this convrt. does look a little awkward though.

Holy crap, it has no roof. Definitely a Solara knockoff.

How about people actually find out what a Solara looks like first before they pretend their opinions mean anything.

If you want to criticize this thing, complain about why the rear seats have no legroom and why it has no V12 diesel in it.

Man oh man! I promised myself I will not come back to this stupid site, but this is just too tempting.
Yep, nice Toyota Corola mixed with a bit of Toyota solara, with a bit of Volvo in it. Is it just me or the dashboard looks like it is made out of black concrete... ;-)

I just went out in my garage to confirm that I own the same car, an IS350, but with a roof and 4 doors. The pleasing lines of IS series have been lost in something between an SC430 and the late,(thank goodness), Toyota Solara. No mention about what tires will come with this car. I'll venture that standard equipment will be Bridgestone run-flats to save trunk space, (to the tune of 15K-20K mile treadwear and $2000 per set replacement cost). Lastly: "generous rear seat access and spacious rear passenger accommodation." LOL, looks just like the "back seat" in the SC we owned prior to the IS350.

When will toyota get it. This company will never design a truly good looking car. This thing here is nothing more than an is sedan, with longer doors and the roof chopped off. It's like they didn't even TRY; they're SO desperate to match BMW model for model that they through this nonsense together. Truly sad.

They've definitely screwed up the tail lights, and made the read very fat. It makes the coupe/convertible dull when its sedan version is stunning.

So my verdict becomes, the G37 coupe/convertible will be the king AND the queen of all coupes/convertibles.
