...appears to be a huge improvement over the concept. The wide grille intakes make the car look much more substantial, while being consistent with the corporate angled grille theme.

Looks like it'll adopt the chrome grille strakes from the TL-S/RL/ILX hybrid as well.

I was thinking the same thing. Front end looks less bland, even with the camo...

I like the hunkered down stance the front end has, and the fender bulge over the front tires has made it to production after all. Looks like they had omitted it from the angle of the other spy photo of the black RLX, but nope, it's still there... But after having some initial reservations, I like it!

Yes, looks like a sleeker version of the previous Lexus GS. Who knew a simple grille could make such a difference!

I like the updates to the bumper.....looks like there are small horizontal lights in the lower part of the bumper on each side....hope these are LED as well. So far, it's looking good.
