Lexus must have noticed we’re getting bored of seeing the LF-A again and again. It might have won the Nurburgring 24 hour enurance race and been spotted enough times around the Nurburgring, but aside from the sky-high price, there have been no details on Lexus’ supercar.
That’s where London comes in. Lexus has teasingly brought [...]

A less than stellar reception and plummeting sales have led Lexus to announce there will be nothing to replace the Lexus SC. The SC never really had it that good in the bigger world of sporty Porsches and snobby BMWs. Lexus had initially planned to reinvent the SC, but constant delays and reconsiderations have [...]

It has been well known that Lexus will introduce a luxury variant of Toyota’s Prius model when the third generation hybrid breaks cover some time before 2010.

April 15th, 2008 · 2 Comments
Two Lexus LF-A prototypes have arrived at Nürburgring. Development of the LF-A has been slow due to some engineering issues, but it appears as though most of the bugs have been worked out and the Japanese supercar will soon begin taking some hot laps.

March 29th, 2008 · No Comments
Spy photographers already captured a Lexus IS hardtop prototype coupe, but what would the car actually look like without the tarp? Here’s a speculative render of what it might look like if it gets a green light from Lexus execs. It might be in showrooms as early as next year.
