Chris, the owner of this red gem was never intending to make the first step into the automotive tuning world with a first generation Lexus IS - he always wanted a Toyota Supra.
His passion for cars was influenced by his father, who coincidentally was a Toyota technician, who decided one day to bring home a 15th anniversary black on black Supra, the car that threw Chris in the automotive romance.
But since the Supra was expensive at the time, Chris had no option but to go for the other 2JZ-powered car available - the first generation Lexus IS 300.
Of course, Chris decided to turn it into a four-door Supra in disguise, so over the time he ditched the naturally aspirated 2JZ and fitted a 2JZ-GTE which got upgraded to the point it now makes 689 hp. Next, the car got lowered, received deep-dish shiny rims and other little details turning it into the gem you can see in the pics bellow.
