It all started with Gran Turismo. From those early PlayStation days, Sean was drawn to anything with four wheels. Prior to joining the Roadshow team, he was a freelance contributor for Motor Authority, The Car Connection and Green Car Reports. As for what's in the garage, Sean owns a 2016 Chevrolet SS, and yes, it has Holden badges.

After seven years, the Lexus IS received some love from its maker. The Japanese luxury brand revealed the 2021 IS sedan Monday evening, and you can watch the full reveal right up above.

The 2021 IS isn't exactly the major overhaul we expected, but the new design does look pretty good. It rides on the same platform as the outgoing car, though it's a smidge longer and wider, and powertrains remain identical to the IS currently at dealerships.

In any case, the changes look like they're for the better from what we can see so far. We'll see the new IS hit the streets this fall with a price likely starting around $40,000.
