Today we are bringing you one of the most well done lexus is250′s coming from northern California. Mariano the owner of this badass ride has been in the automotive scene for a while now, coming from a background of honda’s and boosted integra’s, he decided it was time to go with something new and classy! He has won many awards at shows, including best VIP awards, but as he explained to us this ride may look like it is sitting on bags but it is static(sitting on Megan LP coilovers). For him this ride is not so much VIP but more of his own style. He explained how many IS owners go with a more sporty look, like throwing on a set of TE37′s but Mariano decided he wanted to go with something different but still keep it classy and with a set of Strasse Forged 3 piece forged R10 with a Heavy Machine Brush face and chrome lips (f:20×9, r:20 x10.5) he did exactly that. This car is definitely done right with loads of nice parts from his Rotora cross drilled/slotted brakes to the Custom JL Audio Sound System (check out that trunk)! This ride is definitely going to hit a lot more top ten lists on the judging sheets at the next shows! Check out the Modlist at the end of the post and be ready to be impressed! Enjoy!
