5 Reasons Why the Lexus Sriracha IS is Amazing

1. It's the most unexpected pairing in a long time

Nobody expected to see something like this emerge from the Lexus brain trust.  It's weird, quirky, and pretty darn cool.  While everyone knows that the Los Angeles Auto Show will be full of high horsepower, crazy painted, and over the top rides every year, nobody expected this.

2. There's Sriracha sauce in the paint

The Sriracha IS isn't just about some badges - it actually has Sriracha sauce in the paint.  Like, seriously.  Not only is the paint job designed to reflect both sauce and the color scheme of the bottle, but it even has chili-esque flecks in it.  And the theme continues inside, where a Sriracha-like liquid was cast in resin and then formed into the steering wheel.

3. The interior is all about the heat

When you drive a car as hot as the Sriracha IS, you don't need silly things like cold air.  What you get is a climate control system that only shows the increasing levels of heat.  You also get seat warmers that go up to "Sriracha hot," with heater buttons that have little flames above the seat icons.

4. There's a really hot driving mode

Forget about silly things like "Sport Mode," designed to make the IS more fun to drive.  In it's place is a much hotter "Sriracha Mode," which is, well, the exact same thing.  But hey, it's cool nonetheless.

5. It comes fully stocked

The Sriracha IS isn't just some puff piece that will leave you stranded when it's time to eat.  Because it also comes fully stocked with 43 bottles of the famous hot sauce in the trunk.  And if you don't feel like walking back to the car but still need your fix, the key fob is a mini Sriracha dispenser as well.
