1997 Top Gear Feature on the Lexus LS 400 & GS 300

Lexus Wallpaper of the Week: LS Generations Part Two

Posted by krew on April 9th, 2009

Lexus Wallpaper: Lexus LS Generations

1680x1050 | 1440x900 | 1280x1024 | 1280x800 | 1024x768

Great work! (Thanks Dan!)

It’s always a blast seeing your favorite cars featured in TV and movies, and what what an appearance the Lexus LS 400 made in the first episode of the Sopranos (Warning: Contains coarse language and violence, viewer discretion advised):

I don’t even like my girlfriend driving my car, and she’s not in the habit of running people down. If you ask me, Christopher should have given Tony a pop in the jaw.
