Lexus GS 350

Details are limited, but product planning manager Ben Mitchell told Inside Line, "We're really trying to increase the emotional qualities of our brand. We want to emphasize exterior styling and dynamics." He also added the company is conducting a "...fairly active study of coupe opportunities."
