Default Lexus Posers....

In the span of two weeks, I was able to capture these Lexus posers on my cell phone camera.

It hard to tell but the Civic bright lime green car does have the "L" logo .

The truck clearly wanted to be the first Lexus Tacoma construction turck.

Thats nothing, I saw an old crx with the IS300 rear end(tails). It also had L. I was going to take a pic but I didnt want the dude to think his car was cool.

A guy in my complex has a 4Runner with the Lexus badge as well as a badge that reads "22" with "Size matters" under it in regards to his horrible looking chrome wheels. Awesome.

That's not necessarily a bad thing. Some people like the look of an AMG Mercedes but don't necessarily want to own one.

Why do you think the firm offers the AMG body styling for every Benz on the market?

I have seen a couple of posers in my area recently. The first was some 90's Hyundai with Lexus emblems. The other one was a new Solara Convertible with the L badge. haha
