I'm pretty sure this is about $20k more expensive but I'm sure the Q60 will perform better.

The Q60 isn't ugly. It's just not as eye popping as the concept. I'll reserve my opinion on the Q till I see it's ipl or equivalent and in a variety of colors. Red IMHO isn't a great color unless it's on an exotic. The silver concept was nice.

I would think the LC500 is probably going to be close to $100k and the Q60 won't touch it in performance. The LC will have a power advantage, a transmission advantage and likely weigh less. Not to mention the current IS platform handles a ton better than the current Q50 platform.

Im of the opinion LEXUS, despite its prowess at engineering, has never been a #'s phenom. Id wager this wont be all that much quicker (if at all) than the new Q Turbo from a dig to say 100. Look at the LFA, its a engineering MARVEL with REALLY pedestrian performance numbers for the class of car. Just like EVERY car theyve EVER built. Its the MAZDA of the Luxury world.

Put both cars on a track and I'll put my money on the LC.

Depends which model. That 400HP hybrid that's closer in power to the Q. The Q I think will kill it.
