Lexus IS-F CCS-R Racing Concept at Tokyo Auto Salon


Lexus has unveiled the IS-F CCS-R racing concept at the 2011 Tokyo Auto Salon — here are some photos from Autoguide’s Colum Wood:

The IS-F CCS-R, or IS-F Circuit Club Sports Racer, is tuned for the track, with a gutted interior, a roll-cage, and plenty of carbon fiber, which was used for the front splitter, hood, trunk lid and the super-massive spoiler.

No details on availability or purpose just yet, but this is the second year in a row that Lexus has displayed a racing concept at TAS, which would indicate that a true IS-F race car is a distinct possibility.

Speedhunters also has a great shot of the CCS-R:

What about the engine and transmission?? Any specs on those??
@Joshd: It would do wonders for balance and cornering, though a large wing can cut into your top speed. (At least that's what GT5 has taught me!) 8-)

No actual specs about the engine in the press release -- let me see what I can find out.

Ok, it turns out there's no change to the engine or transmission with this IS-F, here's the power chart:
