for 10k you can get all those parts yourself and still save a couple of grand lol and it doesn't even include the GFX kit on there.

Thats either a used car and the original owner put those mods on or Lexus decided they could mod it themselves and sell it for a profit (they should have just stuck with F-Sport). There is definitely no factory "GT" option.

Some unsuspecting customer is going to think he got a genuine Lexus sports model! McGrath GT, that is seriously hilarious!!!

Looking at the VIN, its a 2010 model. Im wondering if they are going to follow up with the Lance Armstrong GTS model?

I like the "Custom Paint and Appearance Package". I wish I could get the dark and mysterious appearance package. And why the hell is the rear lip black? Did they just slap on one of the old 202 or 212 lips lying around? lol

I wonder which sucker would buy this. For $51k you can get ISF not IS250. I can't believe a dealer would do this...
