With the shadowline trim it would be perfect.

It is a really long car. I joked about calling it a two door limo. But I like the white color and the overall design.

Thanks, Palboy---beautiful. I think the roofline of the coupe, and the way it flows into the much better than previous design trunk lid makes the car.

I am counting the days till mine arrives. Glad I ordered the M package!!

This is an interesting car, because I really like it. The Msport looks great, and the lines all work for this car. First time in awhile I have liked a car in pictures before ive seen it in person.

Thanks for the shots Palbay!

curved door-line looks weird ... maybe a straight line continuing down from the pillar would have been better. Anything would be better.

2 doors ... on such a long car? Why? To pretend it is sporty?

I think that this car looks amazing both with and without the m-sport package. Also, this is a GT car, not a sports car, it's not pretending to be one. They're just infusing some "sportiness" into it with the m-sport. You can say the same about the 7-series. It's a luxury car but infused with some sportiness with the m-sport package.

I like it! Looks good. Also, I believe it looks even better in real life since the standard one looks a lot better in real life than in the photos.

I drove a 650i convertible not too long ago, you'll immediately realize it's not a sports car, but it's still an extremely nice place to be and you feel like a baller driving it

Gorgeous! The M-sport kit really gives it the touch of character that it needed.

I agree, the car screams 1991 Lexus SC...the stance also looks kinda weak...not beefy enough or something.
