show me that booty.

The problem with the 5 GT isn't its hatch, it's the gratuitous tallness.
At least from these pictures, the A7 looks like it will have proper car height.
In that case it should be good. These hatches are enabling the makers to do great things with interior packaging.

F*ck! They stopped selling us the Allroad... and we have this instead? Listen up VAG: We want the C6 Allroad. We want it's air suspension and V8. We don't need this or another SUV when the Allroad will do nicely. That is all.

Give me some manual coilovers that range from "light offroading" (tall) to "sport package" (low). Say, 2"-3" of adjustment range.

"Mommy, daddy's car has a nicer back seat."
"Oh yeah?"

It's kind of strange looking, but it is a concept afterall. Anything that can raise awareness - and acceptance - of small cars in the premium space is fine with me. If we could get the LF-Ch in the States - and the Mercedes B-Class down from Canada, we'd be set for a whole new take on luxurious cars. Heck, even Lincoln's Concept C would be a spectacular addition to the cause.

For myself, the hatch is a great part of the design. I still think a compact luxury hatch is a fantastic idea. All the benefits of a luxury car with the advantages of a compact economy car.

Lexus arrive a Francfort avec un nouveau modele deguise en concept car et le plein de nouveautes dans sa gamme. I think that translates into....do ya'll like it any better in this color?
Personally, I think the design is over the edge for my tastes. But I really like this shade of blue.

Take a look at the style lines on that front end. No two lines -- anywhere! -- line up with each other. That crease in the hood breaks off and heads in three different directions, depending on whether you look at the headlight, the inside, or the outside of the grille. The grille, then, has no visual relationship with the styling of the bumper, the outside edge of the headlight is a random character line that goes nowhere, the "brake ducts" have no relationship with the rest of the nose. It looks like a random series of lines that were slapped together, like a teenager picking unmatched body kits and slapping them haphazardly on his Neon.
Lexus does have a design language; unfortunately that language is "gibberish".

Really? You think you're going to hurt my feelings? Good luck with that.
