Tokyo Auto Salon 2010: Lexus IS-F CCS Concept : Auto News
Porsche Taycan Forum
Tucked away towards the back of Toyota’s booth at the 2010 Tokyo Auto Salon was this IS-F CCS Concept that looks to be a lightweight version of the performance-minded sedan. Not much details could be found on this CCS Concept, but we definitely fell in love with the bright orange shade and carbon fiber accents. The hood, trunk, and spoiler were all constructed on carbon fiber while the front bumper and side skirts got a mild trim accent and the rear bumper its own carbon fiber diffuser. A slightly different exhaust system also appears to be a part of the package, as do the light weight wheels. It also doesn’t take an expert to see that this IS-F features a significantly lowered suspension.
Looking at the IS-F CCS Concept, we can’t help but think of the equally-orange BMW M3 GTS, which debuted recently in Germany as a track-only club racer. Is Lexus thinking of offering a similar model, or perhaps a light-weight street legal version? We certainly hope so.

When I initially clicked on this topic, I didn't realize what this was. I figured it was some salon that gussied up an ISF and brought it to the show. Now I notice just how interesting this car really is.
IMO, what we are seeing here is significant. Not only have we heard rumors about such a car for a long time, but we are also seeing the efforts of Lexus recent investment in carbon fiber technology.
I am excited to see where this goes...
