This Multi-Award-Winning Lexus IS220 has got to be one of the best on the Modified Car Show Scene.

Fast Car Magazine ran a 5 Page Feature of this car recently and a copy of the magazine will be handed to Buyer.

Costost of creating this showstopper is over £50k and my intention was to keep it long-term, but following recent changes in my personal circumstances and the hunger for a fresh project, I'm having to let my baby go! :-(

+1 FOR BEING DIFFERENT

I'm sure alot of people will say this is not their cup of tea but for a show car thats re done inside and out I'd have to say its pretty darn good.

Also, I didn't think they made performance chips on our ISX50's ?

If that car won the award, I wonder what other gems were in the competition.

Looks nice...

But I think the interior was over done with the white trims... too much. I would've kept steering wheel all black and used white stitching and the air con vent holes keep black.
