Lexus CRAFTED LINE Special Editions Debut at Pebble Beach


The CRAFTED LINE special edition Lexus models were on display this weekend at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance — here are some photos from the Lexus USA Facebook page:

The Crafted Line is a group of special edition vehicles with an exclusive Ultra White/Obsidian exterior and two-tone black/red interior. The LS, GS, RX, ES, & IS are all available with the package.

    The interior maybe . . . I suppose it is a matter of taste, but the stark black and white just looks cheap to me. Sporty . . . no, Elegant . . . no, Aggressive . . . no, so what??? Cheap plastic models . . . Maybe for luggage, but not a car, especially a premium car. The "crafted line" . . . in what sense? I don't see fine craftsmanship here? What drug are these designers on?

A full spindle grille would be nice on the GS.

Don't like the black against the white - makes it look ricer. Would probably look better on Nebula Gray or Obsidian. Interior is fine.

I understand what they're trying to do here, but the result is sadly rather more "drug dealer" than "bespoke craftsman". They should really try tan saddle-stitch upholstery in ultra-soft leather, with brushed nickel accents for the door mirrors and front grille. In other words, emulate Italy rather than Atlantic City.

It seems I'm in the minority here, but I like the idea of the crafted line although it may have been better marketed as a performance/sports model. I think the red/black interior on a white exterior looks great, but the black mirrors seem a bit excessive. I also think the charcoal wheels on the RX look much better than the black we see on all of the other cars

    Black door handles... now, that is excessive.

    Yeah I agree. Black trim like that just seems like base model design

    I kinda liked the old Coach Editions; its subtle but seems more "crafted" than these ones.
