Default ASI Invader - Tuned Up LX570

So I was just browsing today, making the rounds on all the usual blogs when I caught wind of this. It looks like the news is more of a pre-release because there aren't many details, but it definitely interested me considering that there isn't much aftermarket fun to be had with the LX570.

Can't really say how I feel the design of it all, but here it is.

mentioned it in the black bison thread, that price includes a performance package, tuned to push out 600 hp for a 0-60 mph time of less than 5 sec (stock LX570 does 0-60 in 7.4 sec)

as the saying goes, you have to pay to play.

I think I'd just rather take that money and buy a fun, fast car specifically built to perform than pay for this package.

true that. but this LX is for someone who wants to be different than all the other cars/suvs on the road. guaranteed the ASI tuned LX will be extremely rare.

Lovely, we have an LX 570. Im thinking of this body kit but the price tag for both the car with the kit or the kit itself is way too much !

So a vid on youtube dunno if its Before or After tunning, seemed to me its stock.

In love with the black LX

the price tag is ridiculous.
I would install TRD Supercharge in Dubai for $10K and I will get nearly the same performace.

I saw this car at the autoshow in Sharjah yesterday, all i can say was that it stole the show. Beautiful car, work done is top notch, engine bay was clean as hell w a TRD supercharger on it putting out 650 hp
I took some pics w my camera phone but the ones above are much nicer

Wow. Definitely for someone that is 'unique' & flamboyant to buy...

Personally, i'd save the 224K, buy a Turbo Cayenne with some nice wheels and get many more 'positive' looks than this monstrosity would ever receive!

Lexus LX 570 ASI Invader Arrives in The Middle East

Posted by krew on October 20th, 2010
The wildly elaborate custom Lexus LX 570 Invader by ASI made its UAE debut last week at the Sharjah Auto Show:


Just check out this interior:

Equipped with a supercharger that boosts the 5.7L V8 to 592hp (up from 383hp), the ASI Invader will reportedly hit 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in 5.5s. Drive Arabia has some more details:
[Other features include] a carbon-tipped performance exhaust system, a lowered manually-tuned suspension setup that kill offroad ability, a heavy-duty brake system, forged 22-inch wheels, and a customised interior that seems to only consist of mismatching red upholstery bits on the stock beige cabin, with red seats, dash, armrests, headliner and floor mats.
…ASI will only manufacture 100 of these vehicles. They will be sold in the UAE and possibly in Saudi Arabia via local Invader dealers, with prices approaching Dhs 1 million each.
If my conversion is correct, that’s about $272,000 USD, which is a hefty price to pay — however, judging by the amount of emails I get from the Gulf States regarding the ASI Invader, generating sales shouldn’t be a problem.

Ugly, too busy for an LX.

I like the interior though, My IS's interior will look like this at the end of this year, hopefully.
