Nice! Looks like they're responding to BMW. Couldn't have come at a better time.

Tokyo Auto Salon 2010 Live: Lexus IS F Club Circuit Sports Concept

Tokyo Auto Salon 2010 Live: Lexus IS F Club Circuit Sports Concept
Continuing the tour of the huge booth Toyota at the Tokyo Auto Salon: installed in the background, not to shadow the concepts G Sports, a task Orange attracts the eye but which are approaching round: beautiful beast that Lexus IS F Concept CCS, where carbon coating vies with orange slamming little Lexus. If you are regular readers of this site, you probably made the connection between this car and the mysterious IS F Evolution raised on several occasions during the past two years, and you were right.

Lexus actually worked for some time to a more radical version of its sedan muscled at the request of a party of customers who do not disdain to attend the tours. The first rumors of a body entirely of carbon and some other characteristics of the same register extravagant. The economic reality has been there, and the car shown at the Tokyo Auto Salon is more pragmatic to simply replace the carbon hood, roof and trunk, adding a front blade, skirts, an extractor and a wing hit an F the most beautiful effect. If the engine is not affected, a new exhaust system allows it to breathe better and thus save a dozen horses and all the links on the ground is completely revised as befits a car clearly intended for the circuit, as its name implies.

The nice surprise is not strictly speaking part of the offensive Sports G nor does the badge that signals GRMN now Ultrasport versions of the brand. We do not yet know his future, but you can bet on a limited distribution at a price astounded at the Nissan GT-R Spec V ...

I wonder why they changed the CF from silver to traditional Black. The black is easier to work with as a designed for sure.

i dont like the wing itself, but am liking the wing design- the F badge camouflauged on the sides is a nice touch. the kit (front, side, rear) all look similar to the branew kit. not bad overall IMO. great competition against bimmer and bmw in the sport sedan segment.

I really like what they did with this IS-F build...

BUT in my honest opinion, I don't see many if any production parts coming out of this..

The key word here is "Concept" ...

Can somebody confirm if the "bulge" from the carbon hood is gone? it kinda looks more flat. (I just wish they made the stock hood a little flat.)
