I don?t know. The 6GT is at least kinda clean, even if it?s a goofy overall shape. The current Lexus design ethos seems to be to torture every square inch into a turbulent mess.

Sometimes clean lines are good. There?s just so, so, so much going on with the LS. I think it was Cumberford who said the best designs were those that when the designers were done, they then removed two more design details. Lexus clearly adds two hundred and ninety six to what should be the finished design.

Same thing with Honda. I liked the way the Civic Si drove. My first car was a CRX Si. But man, there are panels on top of panels on top of the original panel. So much could be simplified and it would be a thousand times better for it.

Amusingly, the LC500 is a spare, clean and nuanced design (aside from the tragic grille).
