Too much effort into something that not going to be produced

Twin LC V8s are only good for 49 MPH in the water? That's crazy.

It was an amazing event (and full day)... Akio Toyoda himself arrived on the Lexus Sport Concept!!

One of many Behind the Scenes Clips...This was an extremly high level event with Aiko Toyoda in attendance. It was an honor being there and it was incredible to be given full access to the #lexuslens event.

We got to about 32 knots in it...I'll post the video riding in it this weekend. It tops out around 43 knots....

This morning I was invited to an exclusive shoot with it in Miami with the LC. I'll post that soon as well. The Lexus Sport Yacht Concept will then make its way to California then off to Japan.

This murdered me.

Have to say, the yacht was a very cool launch and part of a very interesting event. I'm writing up my coverage, and I can safely say it won't be for everyone -- Lexus went all-out for a very specific audience, and I think it was excellent.

Don's hair needs to be red ...

Paul Williamsen was explaining the engine to me so I decided to start recording! You get some cool inside info on what they did to make this work.

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:

A report suggests Lexus will proceed with 60-foot yacht based on recent concept.
