Lexus is headed to SEMA in Las Vegas with an arsenal of custom vehicles. A total of nine Lexus products will be in attendance, tuned by the likes of Five Axis, VIP Auto Salon and JT Grey Racing in addition to a line of factory-customized F-Sport offerings.
Five Axis plans to bring along both the CT 200h that the company unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show this year as well as a new GS F Sport project (seen above). The latter vehicle wears a full widebody conversion as well as custom paint, brake hardware from StopTech and a full AirRunner TC-5 air suspension.
VIP Auto Salon, meanwhile, plans to show off a special IS 350C with custom carbon fiber aero work, a Power Enterprise Rotex supercharger kit for a little bit more speed and a TOMS upper shock tower brace.
But we're most taken with the idea of the Lexus LX 570 by JT Grey Racing. Sadly, there aren't yet any pictures of that beast, but Lexus says it has been built to be a full-blown off-road racer with 37-inch BF Goodrich Baja TA tires, 17-inch custom wheels, lots of off road lighting and Sparco race seats inside. We're always fans of airborne luxury SUVs... Read all about each vehicle in the press release after the break.
Driver Joe Bacal and the JT Grey Racing team shows just how capable, reliable and durable the Lexus LX 570 is. The LX 570 has conquered rugged and extreme desert terrains and with its off-road mastery and powerful 5.7-liter V8, it is sure to be a winning combination.
Highlights:
• 37-inch BF Goodrich Baja TA race tires
• 17-inch F Sport forged off-road wheels
• Custom King Racing shocks
• Off road lighting with 70 watt carbon fiber HID
• Sparco race seats
As the first production model to wear the brand’s “F” marquee, the Lexus IS F offers a thrilling, fun-to-drive experience. Providing stimulating driving dynamics, the IS F is exclusively powered by a performance-tuned 5.0-liter V8 engine teamed to an eight-speed Sport Direct Shift transmission.
Highlights:
• 19-inch forged aluminum wheels manufactured for Lexus by BBS
• Bi-xenon HID, auto-leveling headlamps
• Distinctive F marquee styling cues
• Dual-polished stainless-steel exhaust diffusers
• Blue accents exclusive to “F” marque
