Now that we have talked so much about the Frankfurt Motor Show – let’s touch base on some of the cars that are being features there this week! Well – the Lexus LF-Ch Concept is one car.

While I usually love concept cars and I absolutely love the Lexus brand, I have to say that I was severely disappointed with the Lexus LF-Ch Concept. While it was a good idea in the beginning … the execution was not great.

Also, can we talk about the color? Who decided that pee-yellow was a fantastic color for a brand new, concept car? I didn’t and I would hope that this color is never, ever seen again!
