German tuner Lorinser is best known for modifying Mercedes-Benz cars for the past few decades. Now the company has tried their first ever Asian adaptation. Meet the Lorinser Lexus LS 460, which is an excellent result and the first Lexus Lorinser has tuned.
The Lorinser kit for the LS sedan is indeed an attractive appearance package consisting of a body kit with new front and rear bumpers, new alloy wheels, side skirts and new exhaust tips.
No power work was done under the hood of the German-tuned Japanese luxury sedan, since the 380hp (280kW) V8 engine and its 5.7 second 0-62mph (100km/h) time were deemed good enough.
Engineers first subtly attacked the front fascia with a new spoiler that incorporates new, round foglights. The front bumper also appears to be a bit more squared off, giving the car a more stately appearance. Side sill changes are substantial, but not aggressive, and warn onlookers that the car has some power under its hood.
Modifications at the back are a bit more noticeable, although Lorinser kept the 460's rear light cluster intact. A rear wing has been added on to the boot, and a new apron has been installed. These show more sporty characteristics, as the apron incorporates an air inlet, race-inspired grill, and quad-tipped dual exhaust. The package is rounded off with custom made light-alloys.
Lorinser hasn't let out the pricing or availability of its Lexus LS460 upgrade kit or revealed if any further upgrades are in the works.
