Interesting the pictures for 2025 inspiration show polar satin white again.

Curious what this means!

​​​​​​ For 2025, the interior passenger seat panel is now also finished with a geometric texture, echoing stylistic elements currently seen on the door panel upholstery

Edit: I guess I found it...?

On the coupe they added alcantara to the passenger door card. Big changes!

More likely than not, the same exact braces that were used on the 2024 Inspiration. The parts are readily available online for those that want to add. It would be very Toyota/Lexus of them to make the Inspiration parts standard the next year.

there are many that were used. I’m at work right now so I can’t list them all here now. Also, a wee bit pricey. Time will tell if the 25’ uses ALL of the 24’ Inspiration braces or only a few. We’ll have to see after deliveries start.

Hmmm. Have to factor in the weigh vs. handling improvement with these added braces.

Where did you see the 2025 Inspiration photos? I only see the regular LCs on the link for coupe and convertible?

Yup they've updated it to remove. When the link was first posted the "images" section did not have the red LC you see there, instead it had a polar satin white with the file titled "2025 Inspiration Series"

Clearly a goof by whoever published it out.

Thanks. Didn't think they would go the same color with the previous year Inspiration series.

The IS500 press was even more hilarious. They took their last year special appearance series Vector blue and photoshop the color to flare yellow for 2025. While leaving the 2024 pictures up as well.

2024.


2025
