Default Custom (kit) 'Minority Report' Lexus Could Be Yours

gauge cluster and center arm rest console looks like Porsche to me. Porsche got the same window buttons on the center arm rest console too.

Another hint is the claim that it is powered by a 2.7L "V6" from Porsche, but obviously it's the flat 6, which would be obvious if it had been transplanted. Clearly this is just a kit over a Cayman. 987.1 too, so quite down on power compared to the 981 version.

wow, this is the first time that actually see a full detail inside/out/all angle about this lexus.

EDIT: it would help if I read the ebay listing
This guy is a car builder, so he built this car to look like the concept.

and engine is from a porsche:

I have custom coil overs all the way around set on this Porsche powered drive train. The engine is a 2.7 L V6 and sounds crazy with the custom headers and exhaust system....


It's kinda cool...I wouldn't mind one, but not at that price

wheels look like it's from an X5

To be fair, the thread title and this site's article should be better titled to reflect that it's just a copy.

Sorry gengar, I wasn't being rude and insinuating you to read the ebay listing

I edited my original posts too many time and left out "I".

I was agreeing with you, not criticizing you! The titles here on CL make it seem like it's some official product, not a kit car on a Cayman - we shouldn't have to click through to the original eBay listing to figure that out.
