Motor Trend reports that the Lexus GS-F will only make it’s debut with the next generation Lexus GS, which would be the fourth generation since the first GS was unveiled in 1993, based on the 1991 Toyota Aristo. The current third generation Lexus GS was released late 2005 and is due to be replaced by the fourth generation in 2011, with the GS-F coming the following year in 2012.
If the project gets a green light, the 2012 Lexus GS-F is expected to make it’s debut with the Lexus LF-H supercar‘s V10 engine mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Above is an artist’s impression by Theophilus Chin of what the GS-F could look like if based on the current third gen Lexus GS. It takes styling cues from its younger sibling, the V8-powered Lexus IS-F.

is that my eyes got problem? 8 speed auto? lexus got this tech 1st?
The latest IS300 looks much better than this 2012 GS-F model.
damn, those rims are cool
the new generation LS has the 8-speed auto on their cars for some time already.. in d next post paul got say wat, tht lexus sources their transmission from Aisin
finally v10 coming into play .
Yup brother, killer rims. I gotta feeling this car is gonna be HUGE, S-Class, Maybach, RR huge. Yet, slightly sporty…not bad. 8 speed transmission, should be very smooth then…
yo..killer a**rims, great fers a sporty ri9de around the office buildings….haha
kinda of tired with quad-light in front… hope Lexus will churn out something new… LED light might be the future tech!
or a new invention called Hybird that derived from HID & LED…
Great illustration Theo got there. Although I’m not an illustrator myself but I notice that there is somekind of a tree silhoutte on the other side of the window. The alloys look marvellous. They are the right choice to balance the huge build of the car, otherwise it might look like a troop carrier. Another thing, shouldn’t a huge car like this be fitted with wider tyres?
I’d buy a car with 8 speed transmission only if I live near the Autobahn.
Such a nice car
Can only drive it in my dreams
Paul, please ask Theo Chin to redesign NISSAN GRAND LIVINA. Its look need fresh design/modification. Door mirror need to replace to bigger like those found in Qashqai or Murano or sportier like in Sylphy (also Z350); new grille to make it more like pre-2006 Presage and post 2006-Presage (same car but difference redesign), rear look with more-Muranoish look and refresh interior.
I don’t know to modify otherwise l’ll do my own Photoshop.
Thanks.
