That's pretty weak for a Sema car.

Looks hideous. If you want to be considered as Lexus, BMW, Merc, Audi fighter then don't go to RKS for mods - they have no taste.

This really denegrates the brand they are seeking to build. Just terrible!!!

me no likey

maybe slightly off topic here but:

hyundai cars still feel uber cheap to me.

i hate how some ppl (like my dad who hasn't even been IN the car) think the genesis is a lexus ls460 beater with a better than toyota price.

errrr just because that's their word and goal for the future doesn't mean it's what it is.

how the fack are you gonna beat a friggin ls460 and charge less than half the car's price?

Sounds like what the Germans were saying a couple of decades ago when a little idea called Lexus came to fruition.

Not the prettiest thing, but mod-borne aesthetics are the easy part. 460 hp + 27 mpg is the only thing people should be looking at in that article. Simply amazing. This car is geared to take on the GS, not the LS, but you can almost begin to make that argument.

I wonder how the Lexicon sound system is in comparison to Mark Levinson. Lexicon's only other automotive customer is Rolls Royce. I wouldn't expect it to be better than the LS', but comparable.
