How can AC get a hold of an LS600hl so early on? Did the good folks at Toyota give them a preproduction model to play around with? If they did, then AC must has some serious influence.

The LS looks out of control with the rims and body kit. Definitely will have a few 7 series guys dump their cars and hop over and try out a Lexus. Seriously, this redsigned LS is creating as much excitement as the original. I'm glad someone finally woke up the designers after slacking off for 10 years.

It is just a render. Auto Couture as well as other companies had to submit their LS versions for a future edition of a VIP magazine.

look at the wheels in the first pic, clearly chopped since both wheels display the exact same reflection.

Looks really good, but yes I prefer the stock exhaust set-up over this.

When it comes to premium vehicles, why bother with modifying it?

For me, it's 100% Stock all the way.

Well then I'm glad the LS600H has a long wheelbase...plenty of room for you

I've been a little lukewarm about the stock LS pics, but have high hopes for the appearance after a few aftermarket mods. I love the technnology behind the 600H, but have no desire to spend >$100k on the new LS. The LS460 is fine with me. But man, do I love those led headlights
