..but yet their implication of the V-theme result in creation not nearly as attractive as a Benz.

That stupid Lexus perception will wash away when the car has hit the roads outshining any four door lexus in its path.

Yeah, it bugs me that Lexus suddenly has the trade mark for quad head lights when Mercedes, Bentley and even BMW have had it for several decades.
