Acrylic Lexus LFA spotted at Milan Design Week

Acrylic Lexus LFA spotted at Milan Design Week

Made by Japanese architect Scu Fujimoto, this acrylic Lexus almost looks unreal.

You can even see its interior - the seats, engine, and suspension system are all visible through the exterior. The sculpture was made from sanded and polished acrylic boards.

hello, 2009!

hello, 2009!

Out with the old, in with the new!

2008 was definitely a good year for import vehicles, with European and Asian makes churning out vehicles that don’t only look pretty, but deliver superior performance on the road.

Cases in point:

2008 Porsche 911 GT2
2008 Porsche 911 GT2

This grand tourer can clear the 0-60 mph jump in 3.6 seconds, thanks to an engine that produces as much as 530 horsepower. Braking is also powered by ceramic brakes.

2008 Lexus LX750

This SUV is packed with possibilities any driver would drool over: zoom down the highway with help from an 383-hp engine, press a button to free up valuable cargo space, tow up to 8500 pounds, or tackle the off-road trails comfortably.

Makes you look forward to 2009, eh? Stick with importerz.com as we bring you more import car news and photos!
