All-new Lexus IS-F coming in 2012

Following the post regarding the all-new Lexus IS (earlier post), now it's time for some info about the new IS-F, which is expected to be launched in April 2012, according to Japanese Best Car (Super Scoop Special issue). Power should come from a 5.0L V8 engine with a power output of 423 ps and 51.5 kgm of torque. Now if that's true, then we are talking about some serious fun! Just for the record, BC claims now that the same engine will power the all-new GS-F (earlier post), but in this case, power will be up to 465 ps.

Lexus readies new IS - hybrid version to achieve 25.0 km/L!

The all new Lexus IS is coming in September, ready to compete with the new BMW 3 series. As you can easily guess, there is going to be a hybrid version as well, which will be fitted with the 2.5 L V6 engine, and it will achieve a fuel efficiency of 25.0 km/L under the 10.15 mode!

As with the current gen mode, a convertible version will be available but this time it will get also the "F" treatment!!! It will be a bit challenging in terms of naming though... IS C-F perhaps?!

Lexus IS-F concepts and CT 200h F Sport at 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon

Lexus presented the CT 200h F Sport at 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon, as well as a couple of IS-F concepts. The first one is the IS-F Club Performance Accessory built by TRD. The parts fitted to this car could hit the market very soon and give a new breath of life to the TRD brand. The second concept, called IS-F CCS-R (Circuit Club Sports-Racer), is a lightweight track-going concept.

Lexus IS-F and Toyota Crown Athlete scale models by Kyosho

Following my last pre-orders (earlier post), I came across with some images of the Lexus IS-F 2008 (Black) and Toyota Crown Athlete 2008 (White) scale models by Kyosho. Of course, those are moke-ups, but you can get a feel...

Some new scale model pre-orders placed!

Further to my latest pre-order for an Advantage GT-R Concept scale model (earlier post), I have placed three new ones today. Note that the photos of the Civic Type R model are from moke-up, so the real thing will much more detailed. Hopefully, I should get all of them by the end of March.
