2013 Lexus LS Commercial: F Sport Performance

Want to have a big luxury barge that will shift but isn’t German? Why would you? Oh OK, if you insist, here’s the new 2013 Lexus LS F Sport model, equipped with plenty of toys that will make you think you’re in a sporty car.
The 2013 LS is actually a heavy facelift, but the F Sport package is all new and has never been available on this model.

The package comes with an body kit, a limited slip differential, Brembo six-piston brakes and 19-inch wheels. Inside, the F Sport trim includes two-toned sport leather seats, but also paddle shifters to control the automatic gearbox. But the powertrain will remain the same, meaning the LS 460 will still have a 4.6-liter V8 with 386 hp and the 600h will be powered by a 5.0-liter V8 which puts out 438 hp.

Lexus’s commercial for the LS F Sport says the car was inspired by the LFA supercar and is, “hungry for acceleration” and “obsessed with precision”.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
