Looking to offer enthusiasts more customization options, Lexus will bring several project cars to next week’s SEMA Show in Las Vegas, including an IS 350C prepared in cooperation with VIP Auto Salon.
The Japanese car specialist started with a unique Chameleon paint job that changes color when viewed from different angles. The hardtop convertible from Lexus also gains a Seibon carbon fiber hood, an aero kit comprising of a front lip spoiler, side skirts, rear diffuser, boot lid wing, and headlamp trims.
The IS 350C rides on a lowered suspension with Bilstein shock absorbers and a set of 19-inch forged alloy wheels wrapped around beefy Michelin tires.
However, the most important performance modifications are under the hood where VIP Auto Salon bolted on a supercharger and a sport exhaust system, which along with the updated ECU pushed output to 386-horses at 5,800 rpm and 372 lb-ft at 5,200 rpm.
