Not everything that glitters is gold, that shooting stars — like Lexus — can break the mold one time too many.
This golden concept, the LF-C2, serves as both a harbinger of design cues for the Japanese premium brand, and the foundation for a grand-touring convertible to replace the aging IS C. The concept rides upon the bones of the RC 350, with a width of 72.4 inches; the former’s length is slightly longer at 185.6 inches.
If the business case is there — convertible sales are falling in the United States, after all — the 2+2 LF-C2 could become an RC convertible, with power derived from the RC 350’s 3.5-liter V6.

I do believe we are mixing musical metaphors here. Let's see.....not everything that glitters is gold...perhaps a nod to Zepplin ( all that glitters is gold) and the other part gets me thinking about Frankie. Goes to Hollywood that is. Anyways, is Lexus serious? Ugh.Meh.Truck.
I thought this was supposed to be a family friendly site. I can't believe you guys put goatse on the front page.
