If you thought the LF-A's design is out of this world... The color is called "goldenrod", ooo errr. To call it striking is an understatement. It's supposed to celebrate Lexus's 25th birthday. It was also informed during the LA Auto Show that the new exaggerated spindle grille & sharply angled front bumper gives clues to future designs.
As much as the spindle grille is starting to grow on me, especially with the mesh design, how much bigger do they need it to grow?! It might as well line up with the head lamp & lower ducts, let alone the whole bumper. This seems to be the trend with western manufacturers too. Expect to see more in 2015, radiator grilles harking back to the monstrous frontage of yesteryear.
On an unrelated note, VW announced a Golf R Variant (estate/wagon body style). Same engine, transmission & adaptive damping that has "race mode"! Truly for the boy racer that really doesn't want to grow up, even with children. Then again, Audi has been doing that with the RS Avants & less prominently so by Volvos plethora of sporty estates.
I digress.
