The Lexus Sport Yacht Concept will then make its way to California then off to Japan.
Indeed, it has already arrived in Japan, where Forbes' (and sometime Kaizen Factor Asia Editor) Bertel Schmitt received his own invitation to check out the Lexus Sports Yacht. The most notable revelation: while the current 42-foot one-off is not bound for production, a larger 60-foot superyacht version, with more powerful engines, may well be built. The article even includes a rendering of what that might look like:

If they retire the GX and GS to build a MF'ing yacht, I'm going to become a Kia fanboy. Mark my words.

This is so exciting. And when Lexus decides there will be a Superyacht. It means more LUXURY to be considering. I just can't wait for this.

Toyota's marine division would handle the engineering so it's not like building this would prevent them from making a new GS F or something. I say if they can make it look that good, go for it. And offer a program where you can get your new Lexus delivered somewhere on the coast and take a ride on the boat.
