#8 of 3068 susumu by jjpcat Sep 19, 2003 (9:43 am)
Thanks for the link.   I am confused. They look different from each other. So, which one is the new Aristo?   I can't read Japanese. But it seems to mention several engines, including 3.0L (260HP) and 3.5L (280HP). Where's the V8?

Sorry, I should have explaind a little bit more. These are the pic. from different car mags in Japan. And they are mostly guessing and you will have a better idea when Tokyo Motor Show opens on Nov. 5. I liked the second one from top though. The word behind 3.5L is "Turbo" but I'm not sure that they will include that. Whether the 3.0 will go up to 3.3 or 3.5 that I don't know. Wait till the Tokyo Motor Show opens. I can't wait to see new GS.
#10 of 3068 New 2005 GS information by jimxo Oct 02, 2003 (1:42 pm)
Someone I know who works for the company emailed me this today:   Hey Jim, > Yah, I have been busy latley with the launch of the > refreshed LS430. > We were in Seattle last week and they showed off the > 2005 GS. Let's just > say it will be well worth the wait. That is one > nice assss car. > Very well thought out, There will be an AWD > version, not sure if the V6 or > the V8 gets it. > I have not heard any news of a hybrid > Sequoia/Tundra. But as time goes by > Toyota/Lexus will introduce hybrids into more and > more of the models. > So what's new with you???"   I emailed him with lots of questons and this was his reply:   "Hey Jim,   That pic you sent   http://www.autofiend.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&a- mp;a- mp;sid=96   is indeed a doctored up HPX. Doesn't look anything like the new GS. The new GS is lower and longer. I don't know about power output or performance. I do know the base eng will be a V6. What struct me the most is how clean the car is styled and the interior of the vehicle as well. I would say the best looking Lexus or Toyota yet. Doesn't look like anything esle that Lexus or Toyota has come out with. Nice set of wheels as well. Lets just say I can't wait to get mine!! The hybrid RX was there as well. That has some performance as well. Faster that a BMW X5 V8 and gets 36mpg in the city."   Hopefully some pic's may surface now that the car is in the US.   ------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------

Assuming these photos/artist conceptions are accurate can someone talk to these guys about their wheels? Thought they had bottomed out with the SC but these appear worse.
#14 of 3068 Maybe that prediction was right? by coolguyky7 Oct 14, 2003 (3:23 pm)
Toyota says it will unveil two Lexus concepts at the Tokyo Auto Show.   http://www.toyota.co.jp/en/news/03/1015a.html   Here's the information on the sedan Toyota will show:   LF-S (LEXUS Future-Sedan) The next-generation premium sedan LF-S embodies the Lexus brand’s new conception of luxury. V8 gasoline engine and high-output motor hybrid system 4WD (tentative) Length: 4,910mm; width: 1,895mm; height: 1,345; seats 5   Perhaps this confirms the direction of the new GS: 4WD and hybrid technology? Oh yeah, it looks like the concept SUV Lexus showed earlier this year.
