Pics just been released.... I need a bucket.... I need to throw up

the front grill is all wrong

nauticajoe · 8 April 2012, 08:15 AM

What were they thinking?

Needless to say, I'm sure it'll do well.

Mosco · 8 April 2012, 08:27 AM

Not like the previous versions were any better looking.

gmh1013 · 8 April 2012, 09:39 AM

Still looks better than Acura's IMHO....with that grill they lost the baby boomers
but im sure they are after gen x and y and whatever comes after that

Art 1 · 8 April 2012, 10:15 AM

I like the look.

Mike B · 8 April 2012, 10:22 AM

Expect the new Lexus LS too look VERY similar.

RRGHOST1 · 8 April 2012, 10:28 AM

I think its ok,it will look better in the flesh.

HL65 · 8 April 2012, 10:30 AM

Looks a lot better than it used to IMHO.

sleddog · 8 April 2012, 10:31 AM

Looks OK to me......

Just like watches, there's something out there for everyone. You just need to find it!

I call b***shit. How would you accelerate and bake?

gmh1013 · 8 April 2012, 10:53 AM

I found some more pics of it and it looks better than the old one IMHO

Ed Rooney · 8 April 2012, 11:53 AM

I don't like any of the newer Toyota designs. They ruined my favorite SUV, the Land Cruiser, and turned the Sequoia and 4runner into bloated Chevy Suburbans.

Guys... close your eyes

GradyPhilpott · 8 April 2012, 01:38 PM

I don't see anything wrong with the look.

It's highly derivative, but what's new about that?

YIKES. That is a lot of bland plastic...I gota say the exterior body is decent looking, but most japanese cars don't appeal to me.

gold canyon · 8 April 2012, 02:36 PM

I think it's a nice sedan.

watchiwant · 8 April 2012, 04:28 PM

why can't Toyota use Audi as a benchmark

Elegant, well thought interior

I think the baby boomers are about twenty years too young for this car. This model has always been a dog in toyota's lineup, it like their crown Victoria. Good for taxicabs and retirees that had enough common sense not to buy a Lincoln.

I'm sure they try, but that is why an Audi is an Audi, and a Toyota a Toyota...because they can't quite get to Audi's level - nor should they probably, as they're completely different classes. Audi also happens to be leading everyone in styling. That is a beautiful interior!

Dr.Brian · 8 April 2012, 11:44 PM

I'm sure it will continue to sell fine to the older crowd who don't want American stuff and don't want to spend $80k+ on something from Europe. It's not that bad. And that Audi interior isn't making me want to trade in the Benz.
There's something for everyone.

F&Iguy · 9 April 2012, 12:53 AM

its boring

price range about 45K

Mosco · 9 April 2012, 08:14 AM

For $45k I can think of a plethora of other vehicles I'd consider.

Sure, but how many of them are optioned out and full sized?
Taurus
Chrysler 300
Some Buick

Dr.Brian · 9 April 2012, 08:39 AM

Here's a winner

Welshwatchman · 9 April 2012, 09:22 AM

It looks alright.

I wouldn't buy it but neither would I get so upset as to vomit over it.

watchiwant · 9 April 2012, 09:25 AM

here is a very functional interior by VAG Group
