If you are one of the critics of Lexus’ current design language – and who can blame you – we want you to take a second, look at this Permaisuri Lexus RX we have here, and tell us honestly you are not impressed by it. It can’t be helped, right?

And that’s the thing about the peculiar design language. Love it or hate it, you just can’t ignore it. That is what Lexus is gunning for, and what has earned them enormous success. People like stuff that make them stand out in public, and this design does that brilliantly.

Mind you, this particular one, the Permaisuri Lexus RX 200t, is more impressive than usual thanks to the visual treatment given it by the tuner, including some nice aero parts to complement the unique shape of the bumpers and sills – as if the standard RX wasn’t bold enough – and a set of very high-end HRE wheels. The end result is not pretty in the conventional sense, but man is it eye-catching.

The turbocharged Permaisuri Lexus RX 200t here has got a set of HRE RS103 with a brushed finish, measuring 22 inch on all four corners and shod with Toyo PXS-T2 265/40 tires.
