Lexus has unveiled the hottest concept car of the year, the Lexus Sriracha IS concept. It's a Lexus IS with a Sriracha-colored paint scheme, the logo embroidered on the seats and FORTY THREE bottles of sauce in the trunk. Lexus did not "spice" up the drivetrain though and chose the less "fiery" IS300 AWD instead of the IS 350. Hey, Lexus, you do you.

I'm a fan of the sauce, but the fad can end any time.

Wonder if the seats have special accomdations - given the results of hot sauce on most drivers...

The green around the giant grill spices it up a bit...

The Frank's Red Hot GS I assume will have a turbo LS. Because they put that E36 M3 on everything.

They're waiting to use the IS-F for the Dave's Ultimate Insanity edition.

Is this real life? Who gave that the greenlight?

I do like the green grill though.

Ok so what exactly does the "siracha" mode do on this beast?

4 hours after you drive in "siracha" mode, you have an explosive spew of motor oil out the tailpipe?

And now they stuck 42,000 LEDs to an IS. What drugs is Lexus doing these days?

In reply to Bobzilla:

I'm with you, the only purpose it serves is placement on canned, over salted imitation pork product.

99.98% of crappie that people put it on would be better with a verde salsa and paprica on it.

I would guess that's the Molly edition.

Maybe you should put some sriracha on the butt before you eat it?

Not gonna lie, if those are multi color and user programmable LEDs, I'd have a lot of fun with that.

Looks like a buttload of ham would be two whole hams.
