Lexus of Orlando - (5) Star Review on DealerRater

• Eric was able to help us with our questions even if it meant he had to chase down the answers. He was able to answer our various questions involving door locks, new keys, third keys, and showed us helpful new features we were not familiar with. -tuanpham101@hotmail.com

And the most SEMA modified Lexus of all is the...

It seems strange but car tuners have a thing for the Lexus CT200h.

The newest little Lexus hybrid that is the darling of car of the Florida retirement communities (it is the cheapest new Lexus after all) is also all the rage with tuners that strut their stuff at SEMA.

Take for instance this CT 200h by Five Axis.

As you can probably tell by the photo Five Axis CT 200h is lowered and riding on 19 inch wheels and has a custom paint job. That's all pretty standard stuff for SEMA.

But why stop with just the cosmetics?

At the New York Auto show we had a chance to  see a customized CT 200h that proves a hybrid doesn't have to be slow to be fuel efficient.

Check out this Fox Marketing customized and supercharged Lexus CT 200h Hybrid (see video below) that easily gets over 300 HP and what's even more amazing...better fuel economy than the factory car.

Engineering Amazing - A New Era of Lexus Innovation

 

You don't step into a new era. You leap. See how Lexus is engineering amazing with breakthrough materials and processes the world has never seen.

JT Grey Racing Lexus LX 570 is an unlikely desert king

Lexus looks to be giving the Baja 1000 its due. The luxury automaker showed off an LX 570 built by JT Grey Racing to take to the desert sands. With dual King Racing shocks, large 37-inch BF Goodrich tires and a host of safety equipment, the high-riding SUV looks ready to do battle with the best of them. Inside, Sparco was kind enough to supply a set of racing seats as well as an EVO steering wheel. A Lowrance HD7 / LMF 400 navigation ensures that the driver knows where the course is headed, and a Kenwood 110 radio and intercom system means that driver and navigator can stay in contact.

Does this mean that Lexus is heading to Baja? We doubt it, though Toyota has already made it clear that the company intends to take to the legendary endurance course with its Long Beach Racers Tacoma. We think there would be plenty of room in the ranks for this LX 570, too, but that's just us.
