    Lexus are developing an F Sport package to compete with BMW's M Sport Pack, it includes a brake upgrade as well as body kits, wheels, and interior upgrades. Damn sexy it is too!

    More information here:

    Not really a fan of the gun metal grey alloy wheels or blue brake calipers though:

    Looks too much like a spiritual successor to the Altezza.

    maybe its just a bad pic but that looks rotten... the wheels look too small for starters.

    Like the look of that. I think silver alloys and red brake calipers would look better to me, the black wheels and blue look a bit mean but also have a "just off the boat jap import look" about them!:p

    Can't say their marketing people chose a very good name for it. F sport just doesn't have any ring to it at all.

    I agree about the wheels as well - they look far too small.

    Unfortunately Lexus, whilst they make nice cars, don't threaten BMW enough. The Lexus is not as good a drive as its German counterpart. Never was either...

    When I was in the market about a year back I test drove an IS200 and thought it was nice. Then I drove my 325Ci and it blew the Lexus out of the water. Yes, yesy, I know one is a coup and the other a saloon and I also know that the Beamer has more power...but in terms of smoothness and quality the Lexus could not compete. Also, the gearbox was crap.

    The new Lexus doesn't do a lot for me. I do like the large barge Lexus' though...

    Not with efforts like that they certainly won't! Blue brake calipers are something for the modified car crew, not a swanky Lexus.

    I think Hyundai are trying to raise a bit of money by renting out their coupé designs.

    (I know it's a saloon)
