Toyota Motorsports Germany (TMG) has a nice idea of how a performance Lexus sedan should look and sound like in order to face the German opponents.
Although it’s just a testing and showoff platform, this Lexus LS 650 TMG sure looks like a lot of fun. It is powered by a twin-turbocharged version of the factory 5-liter V8 engine making about 800 hp.

However, Alastair Moffit of Toyota Motorsport Germany says that there are no immediate plans for putting the car into production, representing more like a showoff in front of the Ms and AMGs, a work to prove that Lexus can make a high-powered sedan if they want to. But that doesn’t really complies with the manufacturer’s philosophy right now.
