As I mentioned earlier, photos don't do this new one any justice. It looks much nicer in person..
I don't think it looks any better in person. The styling is hideous and all they had to do to fix it was include a normal set of headlights that extend down to the LED angles. I know Lexus has long been criticized for having dull styling but tacking on awkwardly shaped parts is not the way to fix it. There is a middle ground between dull and ugly which Lexus seems to have stepped way over.
When you have to say "Hey guys, I know it looks ugly in photos but wait til you see it in the flesh!", you know someone made a fatal syling error.

The rear and side profile are better in the new one.
Front I agree the previous one looked quite understated & elegant.
I'd wait for the mid life refresh for Lexus to improve and probably 'tone' it down.
