No wonder I have been getting so many calls for Portofinos this week! They will not be here until late summer (and they WILL NOT be inexpensive!)

That Wald LS looks absolutely amazing, and it has a modified 1UR-FSE under the hood

Are you referring to the Wald LS? Wald is a Japanese tuner that is influenced by European style and design.

In the linked article, it mentions that Wald has done some work on the engine. The rumour is that it has a supercharger.

Actually, that was the link. We don't know yet exactly *what* engine mods Wald has done, but the link mentions that some mods were done. We will have to wait to see specific mods.

Yup, I know Wald well. I am referring to the font of the emblems. They appear to use MB-style writing as opposed to Lexus-style writing. Perhaps they had difficulty deciding how a "k" would look in Lexus-font, but they sure messed it up.
