It's just embarrassing. Sriracha isn't even spicy.

Come on Lexus. Worst move ever. Look at how Fiat is working with Gucci. It's not like you are the first auto maker doing a cross over but please do some research before doing it. Total disappointment about today's release.

The difference with Fiat and Gucci is that's a trim that Fiat sells. This isn't a trim for Lexus to sell. This is a one off show car.

Talking

Humor fail Lexus. Maybe Santa's new sled on the front lawn for the holidays? Maybe if you throw in all-season mats, matching socks and hoodie and ya got a deal!

Does anybody else find it ironic how the heated seat buttons have a red, hot, spicy button and yet, in reality, the heated seats are such a joke that most of the members on here complain about it?

Not an Infiniti fan, but their collaboration with Neiman Marcus has much more class and really shows the luxury in the brand.

Are you gonna do a collaboration with Hoisin Sauce next, Lexus?

My exact words to a friend yesterday. I said I would even rather take a tacky, fully monogrammed LV IS over this.

You have to admit, if the idea was to get people talking about Lexus or the IS, the marketing group achieved their goal quite successfully.

I agree. However silly or tasteless this may be, we have all chimed in.

Having said that, Sriracha is currently one of the top selling condiments and millions of people love it. If it were my choice, I would have gone with the F-Sport model, had the red seats, green wheels, a green roof, green door handles and green mirrors (similar to the "crafted line" but with green accents). **If you are going to butcher the car, might as well go all out!

Obviously you didn't see the new Sriracha mode in the car. Can't wait to see instrumented tests in Sriracha mode.
