I apologize for the third consecutive post but i just found a S8 photo from Tokyo!

Centurion · 10-19-2005, 02:22 PM

Wow the rims on the S8 are gorgeous. Still I would like to see it in black before I point my tumb upwards.

How about this grey one just_me posted:

Centurion · 10-19-2005, 02:57 PM

It is a good picture but still the A8 looks best in black, IMO. Because then the chrome details are more visible.

I just read the article on that Lexus. Sounds like this is indeed the next generation model LS for 2007! Thay say the the LS600 could compete with the V12 models from Germany with it`s hybred technology. I think the design is a big improvement over the previous model by a long shot.
Looks like the MB copycat days are over at the Lexus design department.
I like it!

LOL Lexus has went from a MB copy cat to a BMW copy cat. The profile of this concept reminds me of the 5 and 7er.

Splenditenes · 10-19-2005, 03:45 PM

lOl! yeah, I do see some 5er elements. BTW I even read a rumer that this LS
might be offered in standard and long wheelbase forms like the S-Class and BMW 7er.

Yes, a very derivative design - the front reminds me of the VW Phaeton and there are obvious 5er details - I think from this design it is obvious that Mercedes-Benz is no longer considerred the benchmark in the hearts and minds of Asia.
