This Lexus IS convertible was inevitable in so far as Lexus and the market (especially the USA) needed it as a riposte to the BMW 3-Series convertible.
But in going under the surgeon's "scapel", we have lost probably the most finely resolved, design-wise, small saloons extant. Ouch! It hurts. All other body panels have been redesigned to maintain design harmony with the three-part folding roof." Um, like they were going to use the sedan's four doors, fixed roof and decklid on a 2-door convertible?
Remarkably downmarket look... awkwardly proportioned though certainly not so much as the Lexus SC. And the swoopy greenhouse doesn't fit the blocky lower body. Nissan/Infiniti should be smiling now. I suppose it would look better in the metal, but more effort should have gone into making the IS cabrio more attractive rather than just chopping off the roof.
Verdict: a cop-out, considering it will be more expensive than saloon.
