Toyota and Lexus show off at Tokyo Auto Salon



You have seen the Toyota iQ GRMN Racing Concept (lucky you!), and now it's time, your attention to the rest of the Japanese automaker biscuits to deflect off at the Tokyo Auto Salon show.

First is the Toyota Prius G Sport Concept could love the kind of gaping maw only the Cylons Mama features. Rounding out the offering is the Toyota Auris TRD GT Concept, which we think actually looks kinda nifty, with its subdued body kit and dazzlingly bright yellow color.

Lexus was not from the process either the left and the machine probably more interesting than its mother ship. There is the F-Sport CT 200h (a future production model) at the center, with its unique alloy wheels, body kit and Recaro seats, which is connected to the IS F Club Circuit Sports Racer and a number of Club Performance Accessories for the IS F that Front and rear spoiler and a carbon fiber hood.

Last but not least, the Gazoo Racing Lexus LFA supercar that last year drove the 24 hour Nürburgring race. See both types of vehicle madness in our high-res image galleries below, then you see all details in the press releases after the break.
