Internet-Famous VIP Lexus LS400 Up for Sale
If you’re looking to get behind the wheel of a VIP Lexus, here’s a quick and easy way to do it!
It’s no secret that building a VIP Lexus isn’t exactly what you would call cheap. Getting that low, widebody look takes plenty of cash. Especially if you want to construct a ride that’s going to get the attention of the Internet. But there is a way around that, of course: Buy one that’s already built. And they don’t get much more “e-famous” than this VIP Lexus LS400 build.
We first caught wind of the insane build when Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire fame took it for a spin as part of his One Take web series. To say that he enjoyed the experience is, well, a bit of an understatement. Like most VIP Lexus builds, this one was built for one purpose, and one purpose only: to attract attention. And it does that quite masterfully.
For starters, there’s that custom metal widebody work and Junction Produce bumpers, side skirts, and B-pillar trim. It all sits perilously close to the ground courtesy of KSport air struts, Dual Viair 444c compressors and 3-gallon tanks, and an Airlift v2 management system. Then there’s that insane camber, which places the 19-inch Work VS-KF wheels at a pretty insane angle.
Obviously, a car like this is super fun to drive and show off. So why is the builder selling it? In his words, the LS400 is huge and impractical. So he never drives it. Considering the fact that tires only last around 1,200 miles in the current configuration, that’s pretty understandable. But if you’re just looking to show off and have a good time, you’ll have a hard time finding a better vessel to do it with than this.
