This is a One of a Kind vehicle painted by Eduardo Kobra during 2013 Miami Art Basel in Wynwood. Eduardo Kobra is a world renowned street artist from Brazil with murals all around the world. At the same time that he was painting the car, he was painting two murals in Wynwood on NW 2nd Ave, on 28th street and across from Wood Tavern. The portrait is of Clint Eastwood. The car was professionally sanded, primed, and masked by District body shop and then painted with spray paint and air gun by Kobra and team, then professionally sealed with two gloss clear coats and three matte clear coats by the same body shop. 

The car itself is highly modified. The engine was swapped to a 1JZGTE from a Toyota Supra with 25,000 miles. It has Borg Warner turbo, racing suspension, custom exhaust, converted to R154 manual transmission with Spec twin disk racing clutch, and all the best equipment with no expense spared. The list goes on but I would like the videos and pictures to speak for themselves. Interior is in mint condition.

The car is great for the streets @ 18psi on 93 octane pump gas running 500 HP

It is even better on the track  @30psi on C17 race fuel hitting 700+ HP

This car can be easily converted to e85 fuel found at most gas stations. A flex fuel gauge can be installed that will automatically change settings to run a mixture of e85 and 93 octane pump gas. With the conversion the car will make 650 HP @ 32psi driving the streets.

Clean Title in hand ready to be transferred.

Lexus hints at possible IS SportCross comeback [w/poll]

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

We're looking forward to seeing the 2014 Lexus IS in person next week at the Detroit Auto Show to see if its brazen design is any less polarizing in person, but Lexus (or at least its Facebook team) has dropped a not-too-subtle hint about the possible return of the SportCross body style - something in between a hatchback and station wagon. The current generation IS comes in sedan and convertible models, but this is an interesting teaser that might suggest an expanded IS lineup.
On its Facebook page, Lexus said:
Do you remember the '02 IS 300 Sport Cross with its style, utility and performance? Will we bring it back? Watch the 2014 IS premiere on Facebook in 6 days to find out!

BMW M4 vs. Lexus RC F in Head 2 Head sports coupe showdown

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

It's the showdown everyone's been looking forward to, the East versus West grudge match of the year. We're talking, of course, about the BMW M4 versus the Lexus RC F.
Although BMW uses a twin-turbo straight-six and the Lexus uses a free-breathing V8, the two are pretty closely matched on paper: a luxury coupe with over 400 horsepower channeled to the rear wheels.
The BMW has been doing these cars for longer, and the M4 boasts a higher power-to-weight ratio. But then the RC F has more power - and without forced induction to break up the rev range. So which is the better luxury muscle coupe? Watch the latest episode of Motor Trend Head 2 Head to find out.

2020 Lexus LC 500 Inspiration Series is a green goddess

Wed, Aug 14 2019

This year's Lexus LC 500 Inspiration Series walked in fields of gold with Flare Yellow paint outside, a splash of matching Alcantara inside, and white, semi-aniline leather seats. The 2020 version of the LC 500 Inspiration Series takes to emerald seas with exclusive Nori Green Pearl paint — nori being the edible seaweed that tries to make an honest living wrapping sushi or onigiri. This time the two-tone interior doesn't take its cue from the outside, opting for tan and amber contrasts. Lexus says the aesthetic game of dress-up "aims to evoke a more refined, mature coupe," even though we're certain two of the LC 500's most profound attributes are refinement and maturity. Semi-aniline 10-way adjustable seats are stitched up in Saddle Tan leather exclusive to this model, paired with slightly darker Alcantara trim on the door panels. The instrument panel, center console, steering wheel, and the rest of the doors are fitted with Black Amber leather. Brown cross-stitching not only cues the color of the seats, its visibility should earn appreciation for "highlighting the fanatical precision of each stitch." As with the 2019 model, the special 2020 LC 500 will be limited to 100 units in the U.S. A custom, laser-cut sill plate that evokes the geometric shapes found in the taillights will inform everyone crossing the threshold of the coupe's rarity. The package sits on two-tone, 21-inch wheels. The powertrain hasn't been touched, motivation provided by the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 with 471 horsepower shifting through a 10-speed automatic. Lexus says it will release price information closer to the on-sale date later this year. A standard LC 500 costs $92,950 before destination; the 2019 LC 500 Inspiration Series asked $106,210 before destination, so don't expect much change from $110,000 if you're interested.
