Jalopnik: The All-Acrylic Lexus LFA Looks Cold As Ice

So cool that it needs no explanation....
This transparent sculpture, by Japanese architect Scu Fujimoto, displayed at Milan Design Week earlier this year, of the new $375,000 Lexus LFA super car just revealed at the Tokyo Motor Show is stunning. Old, yes, but still stunning.

What's most impressive about the piece is details like the seats, instrument panel, engine and the suspension can all be seen. According to Lexus, the sculpture is constructed from transparent acrylic boards that have been sanded and polished. All we know is it's simply epic.

Hybrid version of Honda CR-ZX coming to the Tokyo Motor Show

Due to the success of the recently launched Toyota Prius and Honda Insight, it appears that Honda wants to be the first Japanese manufacturer who is launching a hybrid sports car. The new vehicle which will be based on the Insight, represents a second series of the CR-ZX, and according to Best Car Magazine will make its official debut at this year’s Tokyo Motor Show.

Under the hood, the new vehicle will feature a 1.3-liter (possibly 1.5-liter) engine capable to deliver an incredible fuel consumption of just 3.6 l/100 km. More details to be revealed! Also check the news about the hybrid successor of the Toyota Supra!
