NOW THIS IS WHAT LEXUS SHOULD BE BUILDING

Here is a video preview of all the cars Lexus assembled for the big Sema Show in Vegas this week.....Sweet. I especially like the GS with the asymmetrical stripe. I always loved that racing look. I also think the pneumatic built in jacks would be great accessory for the driveway mechanic!!!! Check it out.... Say hi to Lee while your out there.....

The New CT200h gets F'd

Lexus has decided to release the new CT200h with a variety of accessories including F-Sport Tuning parts. Besides the F-Sport sway bar set, lowering springs and what looks like mirror covers, here are some other items you will see available. Check out the European commercial video to get a feel what Lexus is going for. I am not sure what the deal was in the beginning of it with the odd magazine quotes. You make your decision and let me know.

Lexus Creates a Performance Registry

Lexus Performance Registry

Major news today! Next month, Lexus USA will be launching a worldwide Performance Registry on their website — but it’s been opened early for Lexus Enthusiast readers!

The registry will be an online resource that will let enthusiasts share information on their Lexus vehicles and connect with other owners — making it easy to tap into the collective knowledge that’s invaluable when you’re looking to customize your Lexus.

Once you sign up, you will be able to upload a photo and list the current mods on your Lexus, which is then “pinned” on a map so all other members can see your ride and get an idea of where you’re located. Registration is open to Lexus owners worldwide, and one other cool thing — although the focus is F-Sport models and accessories, any Lexus model is eligible.

From there, there’s all sorts of filtering available, including the ability to sort by club affiliation — which includes this website as an option! This means that any readers signing here will become part of the TLE club, and will be identified on the registry as a member. Other groups will include Club Lexus & My.IS. Very cool!

Lexus to Hold F-Sport Driving Event Apr 29th

I saw this in a couple of places yesterday, this is a free event that you must sign up for to get in. Use this link to sign up. Sounds wicked!

Lexus F-Sport event taking place April 29th at the New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville, NJ and provides hot laps in the Lexus LFA(if you one of the lucky chosen ones)

Do you have some interest in beating on someone else's high-performance car? Then you could sign up for Lexus' F-Sport event taking place on April 29th at the New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville NJ.

Anyone who is 18 or older with a valid driver's license is welcome to register for the one-day event, but spots for the roughly 10 half-hour sessions are on a first-come, first-served basis. Lexus promises that they'll have the IS F sedan and well as the F-Sport versions of the IS and GS models available for autocross driving.

You cannot drive the LFA. However, the company will have an LFA on hand, along with pro driver Scott Pruett to give one attendee per session a hot lap in the supercar. If you want some idea of what that will look and sound like, make the jump for our own hot lap with Pruett at Homestead.
