10 Amazing Lexus F Performance Rides with Stunning Photos! (Fridays are for F Presented by Continental ExtremeContact DWS^{06 Plus})

Lexus F Sport & Performance rides have inspired designers, drivers and artists to reimagine and experience cars through different perspectives.

One persuasive measure of success in the automotive industry is emotional impact. A vehicle can check all the boxes, but if it fails to stir a reaction on the road, it is a loss. From exotic sports cars to sensible family vehicles, there has to be a connection. And the cars that wear the Lexus F badge are designed to provoke. Lexus F performance models have represented some of marque’s most powerful cars, as well as its most thrilling.

The Lexus LFA reached legendary supercar status for its groundbreaking  performance and appearance. Plus, it packed a V10 that could shake a soul loose. And if that exhaust note doesn’t make your heart race, you might be a ghost. It also showed Lexus F at its most epic; the LFA was high-performance at its best–and it blew minds.

In that same spirit, Lexus F cars like the LC 500, IS 350 F-Sport, and the RC F continue to strike a chord. As a result, many Lexus owners have gotten creative with their cars. For this week’s Fridays Are for F, we have an eye-opening collection of custom Lexus F cars, concepts, and images expressing different Lexus F vehicles.

Some of the most interesting ideas and images demonstrate how each Lexus F influences owners and enthusiasts in unique ways.

It’s Alive!

This rarely-seen photo was part of the Lexus LFA 5th Anniversary photo shoot. Photographer Jayson Fong captured the LFA being loaded off the ramp at the studio, and then seemingly coming to life on its own. Luckily he captured the odd but cool moment.

Double Your Pleasure 

Belgian photographer Dennis Noten was commissioned to shoot not one but two LFAs.

Choosing to play up the distinctive profile of the cars, Noten allows the LFA Nurburgring edition to shine as vivid, dynamic, and graceful.

Designing a Drift Machine

Jota Automotive saw the Lexus LC 500 as a low, lean drift car in this rendering. It is a very appealing design for the LC 500, incorporating other elements of the F badge. Definitely interesting; its sharper edge makes it more breathtaking.

Defying Gravity 

Olgun Kordal of Cars and Colour is a photographer, designer, and major LFA fan. He was commissioned by Lexus to create a piece inspired by the ultimate F.

“For me, the LFA is one of the heroes of the automotive world.” he said. “It’s a stunning machine, so I used the concept of mirrors so that the viewer can see every angle of the LFA at a glance. The pulled lines are intended to create tension in the image, in reference to the muscular and sinuous design of the LFA.”

Rising Above

Owned by Lexi RcF, the RC F looks sportier, more muscular, and every bit smooth and luxe.

I Hoped There’d Be Stars

The idea of wrapping a 2015 Lexus RC F in a vinyl wrap of the galaxy might not be for everyone. But Ahnubys RC F has been modded to suit the owner, and no one can say that the work isn’t inspired. It is also pretty incredible. We love its unique character, and its otherworldliness is a nice fit for the RC F.

In The Bag

Modifications for this 2019 Lexus are perfectly executed. Bagged with a few key aero and performance upgrades, Raihan Ahmed has given his IS 350 F-Sport a more purposeful and sinister bite. While everything is consistent with the IS 350 F-Sport, it feels just a little more aggressive. Gotta love that.

The Lexus UX…F Sport?

Wild and daring, this Lexus UX 200 F Sport was created in part by VIP Auto Salon  with Lexus. Tasked with creating a one-of-a-kind Lexus, they made this UX F Sport together. Sometimes great ideas come when you really color outside the lines.

…A Thousand Words 

Club Lexus forum member Victor14 chose this LC 500 as the perfect subject. Sleek, curvaceous, and simply F’ing perfection.
