One of the more intriguing vehicles to make its debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show was the 2014 Lexus IS. With the IS needing a makeover for quite some time, this 2014 overhaul is meant to bring it into shape with the rest of the Lexus lineup.

And when the curtain dropped in Detroit, I have to say I was a bit shocked. I was also less than impressed. Though we joked about the new Nike "swoosh" headlight treatment, it does sort of really look like that. Then there was the interior, which was ROASTED by commenters for appearing a decade too late.

But today things got a bit more interesting. That's because Agent 001 snapped all-new shots of the new 2014 IS hanging out at what appears to be one of Lexus' SoCal vehicle development/processing centers. This is the FIRST time anyone's seen the car outside of the auto show and if you've been following AutoSpies for quite some time, by now you'd know how profoundly different cars can look ON THE ROAD.

Remember when we FIRST saw the Evoque completely uncovered and on the road? It looked killer.

Now we turn to you to weigh in on the new 2014 Lexus IS. Now that you can see TWO examples roaming the streets, what say YOU?

Does it have "street cred" now?
