Lexus’ stand at this week’s Australian International Motor Show will be dominated by a show stopping IS250 finished in Mirrachrome. The shiny exterior was developed by the Lexus After Sales Division, and has been in production the past several months. The creators were inspired by a chrome Lamborghini owned by rap star 50 Cent and had the Japanese built car re-sprayed in the special MirraChrome paint in the Australian state of Victoria.
In addition to the flashy paintwork, the IS250 has comes with a unique Lexus body kit, which consists of a front lower spoiler, side skirts, rear lower skirt and a boot spoiler. These won’t be just one-offs either, the new accessories are expected to be introduced as genuine Lexus parts with sales starting by the end of this year.
Our favorite feature has got to be car’s alloy wheels, which were specially prepared for this vehicle, and are available in a polished alloy finish as accessory wheels to all IS250 owners. The chrome IS250 will be doing the auto show rounds for the next several months, and may even make its way stateside.
