| Dear Reader,
Happy New Year from the team at Regency Lexus!
Last month I had the opportunity to see all the upcoming models for Lexus. 2012 will be an exciting year for the luxury brand. With 2011 behind us our inventory is back to normal levels and with the launch of the next generation GS 350 and GS 450 hybrid late next month you will soon discover that Lexus is the brand you have always loved plus more! After driving the GS in Las Vegas on 3 different tracks, I am proud to say that it’s so much fun to drive! The road feel is like the CT 200h and the IS F and the interior is very luxurious. The 2013 ES 350 styling is so gorgeous you won’t believe it’s still a front wheel drive car! For those of you are interested in hybrids the ES hybrid is a great addition to the Lexus hybrid line-up. When I saw the next LS I was stunned by its presence! Once again Lexus with this full size luxury saloon will set the bar higher. You will probably remember how many times this model line has surprised the world. “The car that parks itself” will blow you away with new safety technologies and avant-garde styling. These are some of highlights i’ve discovered of the next Lexus generation which is bold, safer and fun to drive! Come in to experience the difference yourself.
Lastly, we were shown the new concept coupe called the LF-LC. This hybrid coupe will be based on the same platform as the LS. It will be fitted with Lexus’ next generation hybrid drive train. The design is so awesome that the Calty design studio in California was awarded the best concept car of the 2012 North American International Auto Show by the EyesOn Design Awards committee. The taillights inspired by jets, the 3-dimensional instrument panel and the sliding glass roof were impressive industry leading design elements.
The night ended with the quote “Are you ready to rumble!?”… are YOU ready for Lexus in 2012?
