When the Toyota Aristo (later Lexus GS) entered production in 1991 at Tahara plant in Japan, it took design and performance cues from then-current Lexus LS flagship and SC grand tourer, blended them nicely helped by Italdesign Giugiaro and ended up in a rounded, aerodynamic wedge-like four-door saloon with a big punch under its hood.
Adding up the automaker’s reliability and it made the perfect executive back then. However, owning and driving one now will attract close to no attention as its design is as obsolete as the floppy-disc.

But chose a nice bodykit, with sporty bumpers and sideskirts, lower it as much as you can, add an awesome set of rims and you are ready to stroll in Manhattan like a boss. Just like this guy did in the video bellow.
